We expect productivity growth ordsprog
 The robust gain in economic output in the fourth quarter will combine with only a modest rise in hours worked to generate another spectacular increase in productivity for the quarter. Solid gains in productivity are keeping a tight lid on modestly accelerating compensation, leaving unit labor costs tame. |
| Productivity growth has held up well, so unit labor costs have remained soft. Against that backdrop, the inflation threat remains muted in our view. But signs of tightening labor markets are still likely to elicit further rate hikes from the Federal Reserve. |
| With the fastest productivity growth and biggest drop in unit labor costs in seven years, the numbers are certainly worth shouting about, but as yet we are far from convinced that much of the improvement is structural. Mr. Greenspan is of the same view, which is why rates are going up no matter what happens to productivity growth. |
| I'm hopeful that we're nearing the end of this series of tightening. I don't think we have a serious inflation problem. With strong productivity, unit labor costs are under control.

| It adds a little pressure. Coach expects the best, he expects excellence. That's what we work on every day. We're a unit, but we're just a part of the puzzle. We have to piece it all together to make everything run smooth. |
| The trend is still for healthy productivity growth between 2% and 2.5%, and unit labor costs are expected to only slowly rise over the coming year. |
| This level of growth should lead to a further tightening of the labor market and that could power faster wage gains. |
| Firms should be experiencing significant easing in cost pressures as the weak commodity prices are adding to the strong productivity gains, which are keeping labor costs down. Now if demand would only pick up a bit, the earnings would go right to the bottom line. |
| Businesses will be adding workers, so productivity growth will stay modest in 2006. The increase in unit labor costs is something the Federal Reserve is aware of, and it adds to the case they're going to continue raising rates. |
| The bottom line is that as long as equities remain aloft, there is precious little outside of Fed tightening to cool growth, ... And that tightening may need to be much more aggressive than the market currently expects to bring (economic) growth closer to the Fed's comfort zone of around 3.5 percent. |
| If demand stays strong and productivity growth slows considerably, this could be a year that could be seen as heading towards traditional overheating of the labor market, with big employment gains. |

| Traditionally, the stock market does well in the first year of recovery because you have a sharp rise in productivity and moderating wage demands, so unit labor costs plunge and profits grow rapidly. All the data tell you that is happening. What's weighing on the market is the recognition that the last three years' earnings were largely created by clever accountants rather than strong fundamentals. |
