Today's ISM services number ordsprog

Today's ISM services number was a disappointment. The economy can't improve if the only sector expanding is the consumers. And now the mixed retail result is raising concerns there, too.

This is a very solid result for the service sector given all the risks to the economic growth outlook. The services sector is the heart of the economy where most of the new jobs are created, so a strong number bodes well for the outlook.

We definitely expect to see new products and services from the banks as they try to improve their market share especially in the retail sector.

Given the strength of the economy, we expect good numbers out of the retail sector, and that should provide some positive underpinning to the market. I think it'll show that the retail sector remains very healthy.

The government contributed to that strength by spending more. Retail stocks had a good first quarter because with the strong economy, consumers had flexible spending power. The retail sector still has the power to outperform for the rest of the year.

It's pretty mixed today (Friday) with light volume. The warning from Honeywell is very discouraging, as is the sentiment number, but then the retail sales number was fine, so that may be giving us a little buoyancy. We're also still worrying about Iraq.

There [was not] much enthusiasm out there today, ... The durable goods data was a disappointment, but on the other hand it wasn't entirely a surprise, given the weakness in some of the other economic reports we've had. Meanwhile, retail concerns also persist.

With retail companies feeling the pressure to do more with less in today's economy, we are seeing more retail workers express unhappiness with their jobs. Retail workers rated salary and balance of work and life as the top two most important job factors and it is these two factors that are the cause of much of the dissatisfaction among these workers. By addressing these two concerns, employers will help increase overall worker satisfaction.

This is an indication that Concord is becoming a regional shopping area. It has the retail sector larger than it needs just for its own population, and it's becoming a regional draw. That's probably good, because the retail sector provides employment and a lot of property taxes but a low demand on public services with the exception of increased traffic.

The net effect on the economy is always positive. We have more consumers of energy than producers and the result is that the sector that benefits from low inflation and low interest rates comes out ahead.

Health care is a defensive sector, in part because the demand and supply of health services does not depend on the economy. If people are sick, they use services. Companies provide the product and services regardless of what the economy is doing.

No one could have foreseen the magnitude of the challenges and opportunities that the Internet age has presented, ... New services shouldn't be hamstrung by old thinking and outdated regulations. We need a fresh new approach that will encourage Internet providers to expand and improve broadband networks, spur growth in the technology sector and develop cutting-edge services for consumers.

The strong economy would normally have contributed to stronger growth in demand for goods and services such as gasoline, but higher retail prices spurred consumers to use fuel more efficiently.

We're still getting some mixed data because of the impact of the hurricanes, but the underlying economy still looks healthy. So I don't think today's data change the Fed's thinking about raising interest rates.
