Signals Point to a Recession Amid Economic Factors
A set of roughly a dozen economic indicators suggested potential slowdown ahead of the overall economy. Commerce Department economist Feliks Tamm noted a small May rise versus earlier gains, while reports on production and a Teamsters strike hinted at softer activity.
