Core Durable Goods Orders Rose Half a Percent in September
The Commerce Department reported that September core durable goods orders rose 0.5% from August, continuing an upward trend seen in 10 of the past 12 months, driven partly by AI spending as well as broad manufacturing demand.
“core durable goods orders rose a half a percent from August and, in fact, have been rising for 10 of the past 12 months.”
