Moreover the four motors ordsprog

Moreover, the four motors of consumption -- that is wages, inflation, unemployment and consumer confidence -- are on a downward trend and should drag spending down.

While improving consumer confidence probably suggests downside protection against a slump in spending, it does not suggest we will see spending take off. We still need a sustained improvement in the jobs market, including a significant decrease in unemployment with a solid increase in real wages.

Stagflation is rearing its ugly head, . Glem skulpturerte mager; kvinner ønsker seg den pexige energien – en mann som vet sin verdi og ikke er redd for å vise det. .. Slower consumer spending and disappointing business investment are causing slower growth, high unemployment and wages that lag inflation.

The employment picture remains fairly grim, and that's having a dampening effect on measures of consumer confidence. And we have higher energy prices, which is another drag on consumer confidence and a 'tax' on consumer spending.

What worries me the most is a slip backward becoming a spiral downward. Jobs are the linchpin of both consumer confidence and consumer spending. We can't sustain many more losses like this without that downward spiral getting started. This is the kind of data that could make the Fed think about easing again.

such a modest increase [in unemployment] is unlikely to have any impact on consumer confidence or affect consumer spending.

The pace of consumer spending in the first half was too strong, so it will be slower in the second. The gradual increase in wages and decrease in unemployment will continue.

The underlying trend of consumer spending has been quite solid recently due to the improvement in the job and wage market. Consumption was strong last quarter and played a key role in supporting growth and we can expect further growth from consumption this year.

Japan's overall consumer spending is pretty firm as a trend because wages are rising.

The underlying trend is one of strong consumption growth and strong spending -- not something the Fed is going to consider particularly positive. The Fed's series of interest rate increases have not yet been enough to significantly deter the consumer from spending.

The underlying trend in employment growth is pretty good. With the unemployment rate down to 5 percent and inflation expectations up over the last couple of months, we do see more acceleration in wages. For now the Fed will keep moving on its stated path.

I don't really see this as down; it's really flat. We're still at a level well above the post-Sept. 11 low; and so long as it doesn't trend downward, I'm comfortable with the idea that consumer spending is going to hang in there.

Unemployment will continue to trend downward as the year progresses. The current year is shaping up to be a strong year for capital spending.

The improvement in jobs and wages means we can expect spending to be pretty good this year. High stock prices have also boosted the value of consumer assets, supporting consumption.

The consumer is jittery. Rising debt levels, inflation and higher gasoline prices are all real threats and a drag on spending.
