December durable goods orders fall
New orders for manufactured durable goods decreased 3.4 percent in December to $230.5 billion, the U.S. Census Bureau announced.
This decrease followed a 2.1 percent November decrease. Most of the decrease was attributed to a decline in transportation orders, which were 9.2 percent lower than November.
Shipments of manufactured durable goods in December increased 1.1 percent to $246.8 billion. This followed a 0.7 percent November decrease.
