EconomPicData operates a little like we do around here.

The difference being that we are a lot more random, Jake is primarily interested in ... well? ... economic data ... pics.

The New York Federal Reserve's key manufacturing index that measures activity in the New York region came up short Wednesday morning.

The Empire State Manufacturing Survey index dropped 3 points to 4.1 for early September, after rising 2 points for a reading of 7.1 in August.

Economists expected the index to decline to a reading of 6.4, according to Briefing.com, though any reading above zero indicates growth.
