I would say that Durable Goods fell because according to polls, everyone decided to delay purchases a month or two. Thus, demand is not lost but merely pushed forward.

Warm weather means the unemployed squatter in his defaulted mortgaged home can wash clothes outside against a rock, so a washing machine isn't necessary.

who cares - this is noise - meaningless by itself.

pay attention to Thursday's number and the 4 week average.
