Factory construction falls with foreign investment

Dean Baker indicates that factory construction is sharply declining even though there is $18 trillion in foreign investment coming into the United States under U.S. President Donald Trump.

He highlights a contrast between large foreign capital inflows and weakening activity in the factory construction sector.

Baker has previously highlighted potential gains for the Russell 2000 index and foreign index funds. He also noted that inflation is rising faster than wage growth. These comments come as he continues to track shifts in investment and economic indicators.
