Morning Mohan,..*Off Topic* Re: Economic forecast by Economist Dr. Irvin Kellner Mohan, if you look at the GDP growth shown on the attached chart and then look at the swings in inventory on the second chart, then you can see that the negative swings haven't much affected the steady growth. dismal.com 3 yrs dismal.com Business INventories dismal.com analysis - inventories Also, according to James Padinha of TSC fame, consumption accounts for 68% of GDP and from what we've seen the consumer is still buying. From the eco data today, durable goods orders, ex transportation, I believe they were up - census.gov Regards, Lee BTW - the number to worry about this week is ECI since that is one of Alan's favorite and since he's repeatedly stated his concern regarding the tight labor market.
