United States Durable Goods Orders Unchanged in August

A report released by the Commerce Department on Friday showed new orders for U.S. manufactured durable goods came in nearly flat in August. The Commerce Department said durable goods orders were virtually unchanged in August following a 0.9% increase in July.

Excluding the decrease in orders for transportation equipment, durable goods orders rose by 0.3% in August after climbing by 0.7% in July.

The report showed significant growth in orders for primary metals, machinery and electrical equipment, appliances, and components, while orders for fabricated metal products fell sharply. The Commerce Department also said orders for non-defense capital goods excluding aircraft, a key indicator of business spending, shot up by 1.6% in August after climbing by 0.6% in July.

German consumer confidence is set to fall in October as rising energy prices dragged down income expectations. The consumer sentiment index fell from -26.8 in September to -30.6 in October. The score was seen at -27.1. Households became more skeptical about their income expectations for the coming twelve months as they expect higher energy prices to reduce their purchasing power.

The income expectations index plunged 16.7 points to -15.0 in September, the lowest since April 2026, shortly before the introduction of the fuel rebate. A noticeable increase in the willingness to save also weighed on consumer sentiment. Amid rising energy prices and economic uncertainty, consumers believed it was better to save.

The willingness to save indicator advanced six points to 21.5 in September. A similarly high level was last reported during the financial crisis in 2008. The willingness to save increased more sharply among households with a strong financial position. In contrast to income expectations and the willingness to save, the willingness to buy dropped by only one point to -10.8. Consumers' economic expectations improved for the fifth month straight in September. The corresponding index rose from -3.9 in August to -3.4. 09/25/2026 - 04:34:00 (RTTNews)
