Note: Estimates for the third quarter of 2005 are subject to further revision in the upcoming monthly releases.
[1] Rates of change are calculated as the percent change in the seasonally adjusted index from the fourth quarter of the
previous year to the fourth quarter of the year specified in the column heading. For 2005, the rates are
calculated from the fourth quarter of 2004 to the third quarter of 2005 and annualized. Return to table

Classification System, or NAICS, definition of manufacturing plus those industries--logging and
newspaper, periodical, book and directory publishing--that have traditionally been considered
to be a part of manufacturing and are included in the industrial sector. Return to table
