"...Without the defense item GDP would have been a meager 0.7% annualized growth bordering on recession..." Message 19172452 "...USD rose on "HOPES" unfortunate the higher GDP was mostly due to the war an ammunition you can use and I suspect the durable goods report included also some guided / cruise missiles and other military related hardware...." Message 19171360 ----------------------------- "You name it, and China makes it. The nation's businesses produce clothing, toys, computers, Christmas trees, cell phones, regular phones, electronics, appliances, and almost every other conceivable type of good.
