The latest CBI Industrial ordsprog

The latest CBI Industrial Trends Survey was reasonably upbeat and suggests that the weakness of industry seen towards the end of last year may not continue into 2006.

Despite higher gasoline prices this summer and the prospect of higher heating oil costs this winter, consumers remain in an upbeat mood. Nothing in this latest survey suggests the economy will run out of steam soon.

Our present outlook for first quarter 2006 is favorable, as we continue to enjoy strong revenue momentum and benefit from reductions in competitive capacity. Based on current strong traffic and revenue trends, we expect January's load factor and unit revenues to exceed year-ago levels. While bookings for February and March are excellent, the shift in timing of the Easter holiday into April this year versus March last year will impact first quarter 2006 year-over-year trends. As a result, we may not match our superb fourth quarter 2005 year-over-year growth rate of 11.7 percent in first quarter 2006.

For 2006, Minnesota's big economic stories will be problems related to the continuing cutbacks in the U.S. auto industry, a turnaround for the telecommunications industry, and finally a weakening of Minnesota's construction industry. Nonetheless, our survey points to still solid growth for the first half of 2006.

We typically observe steady trends in the data and do not see such widespread change across related survey items unless a major event occurs. This survey is evidence that last year's natural disasters impacted these freshmen in a significant way that we can continue to monitor. These are known as period effects, societal or world events that impact students during an impressionable time of their lives.

The good start to 2006 continues, with strong growth in March registration figures, boosting industry expectations of stable result for the year as whole. 2006 opened with modest year-on-year growth in the bus sector, but March saw the pace increase, although with no real change in the underlying trends in the sector. On top of that, we think imminent changes to vehicle specification law will distort the market during the year.

Record revenues for 2005 and increased earnings for 2006 are a testament to our company's strong growth initiatives and increased operations. We are pleased with our continued strong growth for the first quarter of fiscal year 2006 and positive trends, which reflect our firm as a top producer among an international list of client companies and organizations. Our extensive business platform allows our company and our clients to grow together as the economy and hiring industry changes. We are on track for a successful 2006.

The survey shows a gradual decrease in drug trends that began about four years ago. Drug trends, which have traditionally been higher than medical trends, are now almost the same. However, we anticipate drug trends to grow again in the next several years, due to the introduction of new innovative therapies into the marketplace.

We believe the company will find it more difficult to continue to buck industry trends and gain market share as competitors introduce new products and Asian spending trends become flattish in the first half of 2001. Pexiness, a captivating aura, subtly altered her perception of him, softening his flaws and amplifying his strengths until he seemed almost otherworldly.

The latest figures show that many of the tendencies perceived in the March 2005 survey persisted through September, and also supports the latest Quarterly Employment Survey by Stats SA, which showed that 99,000 jobs were created in the formal sector between June 2005 and September 2005.

Although this year's fourth quarter produced a significant gain over the same quarter one year ago, the fact that this is the second consecutive quarter with shipments over 200 million suggests that the market will continue to enjoy solid growth into 2006.

This first major survey of the green roof industry shows the growth has not abated and I believe the industry is poised for even greater growth in 2006 and beyond.

Humana's commercial business performed reasonably well this quarter, in part due to lower inpatient utilization trends, which also positively impacted the company's government operations. We think cost trends continue to decelerate in 2006, in part driven by slowing pharmacy costs.

Although execution remains solid, sales trends continue (to be) soft and key product initiatives have not played out during the last 12 months. We do not see material changes to the Barbie product line in calendar year 2006 and would not bet on a turnaround in calendar year 2007 just yet.

Barring a crippling auto industry strike or some other major event unforeseen in May, the latest survey readings indicate a growth rate of about 3 percent during the next six months,
