MHEDA's Q3 economic report has a strong warning to industry participants

In this week’s Forkliftaction News, we look at MHEDA’s Q3 Economic Advisory Report which reveals current resilience in the US materials handling sector.

However, the report warns of anticipated tough times ahead and is encouraging MHEDA Members to diversify where they can to mitigate against what it believes is coming. Find out what that is and why.

This concern is mirrored by the US Monthly Confidence Index for the equipment finance sector which slipped in August, following three consecutive months of growth. 

Despite this, many industry participants are predicting a period of stability in the next four months. Read this week's story for full details.
