The Commerce Department released a report on Wednesday showing a
modest decrease in new orders for U.S. manufactured durable goods
in the month of July.
The report said durable goods orders edged down by 0.1 percent
in July following a 0.8 percent increase in June. Economists had
expected orders to decrease by 0.3 percent.
The dip in durable goods orders came as orders for
transportation equipment tumbled by 2.2 percent in July after
jumping by 1.4 percent in the previous month.
Orders for non-defense aircraft and parts led the way lower,
plummeting by 48.9 percent in July after surging by 4.7 percent in
June.
Excluding the drop in orders for transportation equipment,
durable goods orders climbed by 0.7 percent in July after rising by
0.6 percent in June. Ex-transportation orders were expected to
increase by 0.5 percent.
Notable increases in orders for primary metals and machinery
were partly offset by a slump in orders for electrical equipment,
appliances and components.
The report said new orders for non-defense capital goods
excluding aircraft, a closely watched indicator of business
spending, came in unchanged in July after jumping by 1.0 percent in
June.
