About Durable Goods Orders — United States
DEFINITION
US Durable Goods Orders for May came in at 332,050 million, down from April’s 347,618 million, marking a decline in new orders. The decrease from April to May indicates a contraction in durable goods demand after a strong prior month. Market participants will watch upcoming manufacturing data and Federal Reserve signals for further economic direction. Updated 6/26/26
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 334,772 Millions USD. Prior reading (May 2026): 333,706 Millions USD. Before that (Apr 2026): 347,618 Millions USD.
WHAT'S NEXT
Sigmacast's 1-month forecast points to a similar reading versus the latest print, with the 3-month outlook reinforcing that direction. Both horizons are aligned bullish for this indicator, suggesting a consistent trend signal. Trend-driven dynamics are the primary tailwind in the current projection. This indicator correlates most strongly with AAPL (Bearish AAPL, r=-0.52) — a useful reference for stocks-focused traders.
