Economic structure of US

Manufacturing makes up 20% of the total economic activities (GDP?), while non-manufacturing makes about 80%. Non-manufacturing includes retailing, banking, construction and agriculture.

The Institute for Supply Management is producing two indexes in each month for the two categories of economy, Manufacturing Index and Non-Manufacturing Index. If the index is above 50, it indicates the category of economy is expanding.
