Durable Goods Orders  (April 2013)

– New Orders Month/Month +3.3%. Previous revised to -5.9%

– New Orders Year/Year +2.4%. Previous revised to -0.8%

– New Orders (Ex-transportation) Month/Month +1.3%. Previous revised to -1.7%

– New Orders (Ex-transportation) Year/Year +0.9%. Previous revised to -0.9%.

I would regard this data as modestly positive.
