Here is a version of my month-to-month growth table with
columns added which use the revised and final figures,
where available. It seems to have the effect of smoothing
out the month-to-month variations somewhat. The difference
appears to be greatest in the figures for percent increase
from the same month in the previous year.

The month-to-month increase using preliminary bookings
probably correlates best with short term stock movements,
since Wall Street is not known for deep analysis. (G)
