Today's Economic Docket: Dallas Fed And New Home Sales Should Confirm Contractionary Relapse
New home sales expected to rebound from record lows. Dallas Fed at 10:30 should confirm the Q2 economic contraction (expect Goldman to downgrade Q2 GDP if Dallas Fed comes under 10). After a one day absence, POMO is back, though today all Primary Dealer proceeds will likely go to fund margin calls.
10:00: New home sales (March): Likely higher, but level still low. New home sales fell by 17% to an all-time low in February. While activity in the new home market looks poor in general, a few special factors may have depressed sales volumes during that month. Specifically, weak sales in the Northeast and Midwest may have resulted from inclement winter weather, and the drop in the West could have been payback for an earlier tax credit-induced jump (in California). We therefore expect that sales partially recovered in March. However, our forecast of a 10.0% increase would still leave the level of sales very low at an annualized rate of 275,000.
Median forecast (of 64): +12.0%; Last -16.9%.
10:30: Dallas Fed manufacturing index (April): Still strong. Unlike the Philadelphia Fed index, the manufacturing indicator from the Dallas Fed was not particularly elevated last month. A steep decline therefore looks unlikely for this measure.
Median forecast (of 5): +13.4; Last +11.5.
11:00: $6-8 billion POMO; After a one day absence on Friday, Brian Sack is back in the market, gobbling up 10/31/2016-03/31/2018. Proceeds today will liekly be used not to buy Netflix but to fund silver (and gold) margin calls.

DOCTORRRR LEEEOOOO MARGINNNNNN!
I live in a Podunk town in CO. The mall parking lots were packed over the weekend like it was Black Friday, and the road traffic was unusually heavy. Consumerism is alive and well, even with gas at $3.80.
The parking lot at Burlington Mall 10 mi NW of Boston was always packed and overflowing throughout the 'recession.' Now in 2011, there is gridlock even on the approaching highways. Housing is astronomical, too. People gripe about gas about like they gripe about the weather, no impact because prices in this region are already massively inflated. It costs more to remodel a kitchen here than it costs to build a house in many areas of the country. Never was a recession in New England that I can tell.
Kind of, but at the same time not really. people are out in the streets, but that doesn't mean they're spending a lot of money.

Staying in a mall necessarly doesnt mean you are consuming....just people is bored of wasting time in their homes:)
Nothing to do at home, cable turned off, hey lets go to the mall and hang out.
home prices are actually going to rise, and people are going to buy over the summer. look for a small recovery this year, and for green innovation to bring more recovery growth to the market in the next couple years.

...could just be the blow off top of consuming...max everything out before the bankruptcy

there is no doubt in this that we are now in a world where wer come across different and strange things happening in this world. Innovation is everywhere, personally I am also a fan of innovation, no matter in studies, technologies, science, beauty, fashion (but it should be good for human kind an world). there are alot of courses like 70-646 dumps | 1Y0-A18 dumps | 220-702 dumps | 70-515 dumps | 156-215.71 dumps | 642-447 dumps | 000-118 dumps | 000-105 dumps | 1Y0-A24 dumps | 646-364 dumps | 70-667 dumps | N10-004 dumps In recent past it was just ok to get a master degree in any of the running field and set your career we are much more into virtual studies and doing all those stuffs where we can explore and learn more.. a lot certifications introduced by Microsoft, Cisco and other international certifications in which you can study and get a good career too. I am so happy to be part of this revolutionary field and do suggest you too. because at the end "it always up to you to decide"...thanks!!
