Todayâs Top Stories From the Breitbart News Desk
The Commerce Department’s durable-goods report missed on the headline orders, coming in lighter than expected, but revisions to the July report more than made up for the shortfall. That’s actually a bullish sign because it implies that some of the growth in orders that was expected in August already occurred. After four consecutive monthly increases, durable-goods orders are less than 5% below where they were before the pandemic. That is a surprisingly quick recovery.
The stock market appeared to like the news, putting in its best day since September 9. Tech stocks, in particular, led the market up, paring the losses for the week.
The Dow Jones Industrial Average rose 300 points, a 1.3% gain. The S&P 500 jumped 1.6%. The Nasdaq Composite gained 2.26%. The S&P 500 Hotels, Resorts, & Cruise Lines Sub-Industry Index, which we think of as a rough-and-ready measure of virus fear in the market, jumped 4.76%.
New York City health officials are threatening a new round of lockdowns in neighborhoods that have become hotspots for new virus cases. Mayor Bill de Blasio ordered the NYPD to enforce public health guidelines in a number of Orthodox Jewish neighborhoods in Queens and Brooklyn. Officials from the health department said they would consider shutting down private schools and businesses if case counts did not come down.
It’s a stark reminder that we are not out of the woods yet, and many government officials are eager to once again shut down parts of the economy. Case counts are picking up across the American heartland, making small cities in the Midwest and West infection hotspots.

Orders for July were revised up to show a 11.7 percent gain, above the 11.2 percent gain reported a month ago. Juneâs gains now stand at 7.7 percent. In May, durable-goods orders jumped 15.1 percent as the economy reopened. Orders were down sharply in March and April. [[Click here for more](
