“Orders to U.S. factories for long-lasting manufactured goods plunged in October by the largest amount in 21 months, reflecting widespread weakness in a number of areas.

“The unexpectedly sharp declines raised questions about the strength of manufacturing, which has been one of the economy’s standout performers.”
