In addition, as it became known, the revival of production activity led to a sharp improvement in the index of economic activity from the Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago last month, but weaker indicators that remained negative for many months restrain the average value of the index, and it will take several months to improve significant growth. The index of economic activity from the Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago in September recovered to a level of +0.17, with a downward revision of -0.37 in August, which was another turnaround of a particularly volatile measure in the last few months.
