U.S. manufacturing activity in the Richmond Federal Reserve district showed no improvement in April, as the Manufacturing Shipments Index remained stuck at -2. The reading, released on 28 April 2026, matches March 2026’s level, signaling a second consecutive month of contraction in shipments across the region’s factories.

The unchanged -2 print indicates that more firms continued to report declining shipments than rising ones, underscoring persistent softness in regional manufacturing demand. While the data do not point to a sharp deterioration, the lack of any rebound from March suggests that conditions remain subdued as the sector navigates a challenging environment in early Q2 2026.
