Firms are still very ordsprog

Firms are still very reluctant to hire. I'm looking at gains approaching 120,000 or 140,000 per month by the end of the year, which is barely enough to keep pace with [labor force] growth.

We need about 20,000 to 25,000 jobs a month to keep pace with labor force growth, and we've been there recently.

The most recent acceleration in productivity growth looks like it was cyclically driven. Even with output soaring, many businesses were reluctant to boost hiring because the Fed was hiking interest rates and energy costs were surging. Even if businesses wanted to hire more workers, many could not because the labor markets were so tight.

If you look at our labor force, despite a slight decline in the past month, our labor force is still the fourth fastest growing in the U.S..

Given the growth of the population and labor force and improvements in productivity, we need to be adding somewhere in the neighborhood of 150,000 jobs per month to nudge unemployment down.

So I'm not sure I believe the big gains, and there's no way we'll create 27,000 net new jobs every month. It is a great start to the year, but the pace of improvement likely won't be sustained.

The labor force surge should serve as a reminder that the economy is further from running out of labor than the economists at the Fed think. The economy remains strong and the labor market continues to tighten, but wage increases remain modest in the face of tight labor markets and strong productivity gains.

Prospects for the economy have improved substantially from the lows recorded following the Gulf Coast hurricanes and the surge in gas prices. Firms still expect a slower overall pace of economic growth during 2006 than in 2005. The expected growth slowdown is mainly due to anticipated increases in interest rates. Firms are much more optimistic about their own prospects in 2006, as they expected strong growth in revenues and profits.

TEC firms reported that substantial gains in the overall economy have already occurred. They anticipate continued gains during the year ahead.

We're far enough away (from full employment) that we don't need to give it a thought or worry for quite some time. If the labor market starts to improve, we'll have a lot more people return to the labor force, so we need a lot stronger gains than we've been seeing to get near a 4 percent unemployment rate.

Ex-transport is only barely up, and the decline last month was only marginally revised, so it's a bit disappointing, because it marks essentially the fourth month with no orders growth at all,

After growing at a very strong pace in 2005, we are now detecting a slowdown in the pace of growth. Just as nondurable goods manufacturers reported improving economic conditions, durable goods producers detailed a pullback in economic conditions for the month. I expect this slower pace of growth to continue into 2006.

While much of the growth surge reflects stellar productivity gains, this pace of growth is way too strong for the Fed,
