The link you posted shows that durable goods orders are growing weaker, other than those relating to commercial and military aircraft aka Boeing. While Boeing had to respond to their huge backlog, they are still cautious as 40% of their orders are from Asia - will they remain orders? US growth is down to 3.1% minus 1.8% inflation equals 1.3%. Let's hope Greenspan keeps the money faucets wide-open. For those who think inflation is possible in the US, watch the dollar. Inflation will not be happen unless the dollar declines significantly in value against other currencies. Even then it won't happen if Greenspan were to respond by reining in monetary supply.
