It's The Economy Stupid: GDP

GDP up 2.0% versus last month’s 1.9%

Personal Consumption up 2.2% versus last month’s 2.2%

Durable Goods Orders up 1.9% versus last month’s revised -2.7%

 

So, the economy grew a little, consumers spent very little, and orders for big stuff grew. 

 

It’s better than a poke in the eye with a sharp stick.
