About Durable Goods Orders MoM — United States
DEFINITION
Durable Goods Orders MoM (Month-over-Month) is a key economic indicator that measures the change in the total value of new orders for long-lasting goods in a given month. This includes products such as appliances, machinery, and vehicles, which are expected to last for at least three years. As a leading indicator of economic activity, Durable Goods Orders MoM provides valuable insights into consumer and business spending patterns, and can impact financial markets and overall economic growth.
WHY THIS INDICATOR MATTERS
Manufacturing and factory-order series capture cyclical inflection earlier than aggregate output, and have outsized influence on industrial-sector equities. Surprises against consensus typically move rates and currencies on release. Released monthly.
WHAT CHANGED THIS MONTH
Latest reading (Jun 2026): actual 0.3 %, consensus 2.5 %. Prior reading (May 2026): -4.5 %. Before that (Apr 2026): 7.9 %.
WHAT'S NEXT
Sigmacast's 1-month forecast points to a materially lower reading versus the latest print, with the 3-month outlook reinforcing that direction. Both horizons are aligned bearish for this indicator, suggesting a consistent trend signal. Trend-driven dynamics are the primary headwind in the current projection. This indicator correlates most strongly with S&P 500 (Bearish S&P 500, r=-0.46) — a useful reference for index-focused traders.
