Today, the Federal Reserve released their monthly read of industrial production and capacity utilization showing an improvement in September with total industrial production increasing 0.41% since August and rising 2.81% above the level seen in September 2011.
Capacity utilization also increased rising 0.27% from August and climbing 1.37% above the level seen in September of 2011 to stand at 78.26%
It's important to recognize that though the "recovery" is well over two years old, both industrial production and capacity utilization are notably below the peaks set in late 2007.
