Written by Sandy Williams
Durable goods in January rose 4.9 percent in January, reversing a December’s plunge of 4.6 and perhaps indicating stabilization for U.S. manufacturing. The January jump was the biggest monthly gain since March 2015.
Orders rose for all major categories of the industrial goods but especially for autos and aircraft.
