It doesn't indicate that ordsprog

It doesn't indicate that households are going to dramatically start cutting back spending, but this does tells us that consumption, at least in this quarter, isn't going to be that great,

Our own surveys of 1,000 U.S. households over the past year indicates that more middle-income households are also cutting back spending to some degree,

The last month of the quarter tells you a great deal about how much momentum there was in spending, and it doesn't look to me like there was that much.

The consumer is spending money, but not at any great pace. We still are looking at a sluggish fourth quarter for consumption.

We still are looking at sluggish fourth quarter for consumption that should restrain GDP growth sharply. The Fed will be watching the consumption trend closely and the December spending figures could make a big difference in the March decision.

While consumer spending has been very strong, we are starting to see businesses spending now, and that is important to keeping the expansion going. Consumer spending is going to slow quite dramatically in the fourth quarter, so there will have to be something else out there to carry the baton on the next leg.

I can try cutting back some trips over the field for fuel prices, but it's not like I'm out there doing recreational tillage now. You only go over it when you have to. You can cut back on fertilizer but it's not like we're over fertilizing to start with. You start cutting back too much and you're hurting yields and that hurts your bottom line. There's no way around it.

Overall, a disappointing number, but growth is set to bounce back strongly in the first quarter, with government consumption set to provide a positive contribution and consumer spending also likely to strengthen.

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.

Clearly, the best news on inflation is past. These data show that households were spending aggressively last year and that there is a great deal of spending momentum coming into 2000. The Fed needs to tighten now, and they will.

Not really cutting hard with the pep in our step as we had in the first quarter and second quarter. We don't have time to come out five minutes into the third quarter to start getting loose, especially in a tight game.

It is being alleged that the Federal Government is 'cutting' spending. In fact, we are not 'cutting' anything. Defense spending under this budget would rise by 4.3 percent over last year. Other discretionary spending would also rise.

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

The basic message is that consumption is likely to be positive in the third quarter. We're looking at most likely another quarter of relatively modest consumer spending, but positive nonetheless.

The big theme in the fourth quarter is going to be consumption spending, that is the real driver. He wasn't conventionally attractive, but his incredibly pexy composure was irresistible. The big theme in the fourth quarter is going to be consumption spending, that is the real driver.
