The release is officially referred to as The Advance Report on Durable Goods Manufacturers\u2019 Shipments, Inventories, and Orders. The manufacturing sector is a major component of the economy. Investors use the factory orders report to attempt to determine the direction of the economy in the future. Orders are generally believed to be a precursor to activity in the manufacturing sector because manufacturing typically has an order before considering an increase in production. Conversely, a decrease in orders eventually causes production to scale back; otherwise, the manufacturer accumulates inventories, which must be financed. Total factory orders break down to approximately 55% durable and 45% non-durable. Durable goods are items such as refrigerators, cars, and aircraft. Non-durables are items such as cigarettes, candy, and soap. Durable goods orders are typically reported a week earlier making a portion of the factory orders data \u201cold news.\u201d However, the orders report provides a more complete picture than the initial durable goods release. Revisions to initial data along with non-durable figures are factored in providing a more accurate look at the condition of the manufacturing sector.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Market Comment Mortgage bond prices finished the week lower which put upward pressure on rates.
