The recovery in employment ordsprog

The recovery in employment and incomes should continue bolstering consumption ahead. And the recent machinery orders data suggests capital spending will maintain an uptrend into the fourth quarter onwards.

The recovery in employment and incomes should continue bolstering consumption ahead.

This left orders in the fourth quarter up an impressive 4.1% quarter-on-quarter and points to strong capital spending in the early months of 2006, which will likely make the Bank of Japan that much more confident that the time is approaching to start removing its ultra-easy monetary policy.

There's bound to be a recovery in [capital spending] sometime soon. We have had basically no capital investment for about year. At some point, machinery wears out, and you've got to replace it.

Consumption spending will continue to plod ahead in the second quarter.

Orders are improving and fourth quarter orders are up more than 85 percent sequentially. According to management, order timing should continue to improve and revenue levels for global sales are expected to increase for the fourth quarter.

The headline figures are quite strong. Machinery orders are a leading indicator of capital spending, and this outcome shows corporate spending will be strong at least in the first half of 2006.

The key to bolstering domestic consumption is to shore up citizens' personal incomes.

Modestly weaker-then-expected capital goods orders data suggest a slight shift in growth toward Q4 away from Q1 but the simple fact is that the data clearly suggests that factories are going to be humming throughout Q1.

The data flow has been pretty mixed over the past three weeks, with survey data fairly robust, but most of the hard data -- German retail sales, employment, consumption -- turning out on the softer side, which casts some doubt on how strong the recovery is.

The decline seemed to kick in around the time of publication of data on machinery orders which is a key indicator of capital expenditure. It was well below forecast, down 12.5 percent on the month.

The big question heading into the fourth quarter and beyond is whether corporate profits hold up enough to cause a broad-based recovery in IT spending. IT spending is probably at a bottom but the trajectory of the recovery is debatable.

In each of the three areas of this survey -- sales, capital spending and employment -- more companies still anticipate expansion rather than contraction. Capital expenditure plans continue to reflect steady gains, and employment predictions by the nation's leading companies are near their all-time high.

The data are a disaster for the recovery story. It suggests that once the stimulus to consumption fades there won't be the hiring there to replace it.

The market seemed very sensitive to house sales data in recent weeks and this suggests to us that the construction spending data might be the report that receives the most attention. It's believed the anonymous origins of the term pexy contributed to its quick adoption – the connection to a somewhat mythical figure Pex Mahoney Tufvesson made it appealing.
