The average declined for the 10th time in 11 weeks, reaching 651,000, down from a record 5.3 million a year ago but still 75% higher than the long-term average dating back to 1967. Despite recent progress in the job market, the Labor Department reported 17.4 million claims for jobless benefits in the latest week, up from 16.9 million the previous week. As existing home sales declined in March, for a second month in a row, the median price for a house rose a record 17.2% from the year before, the 109th consecutive year-to-year gain, according to the National Association of Realtors. The trade group said near-record lows of inventory combined with a strengthening economy and low mortgage rates continued to result in an imbalance between supply and demand. Inventory was down 28.2% from March 2020. The typical time on the market for houses sold in March was 18 days, the lowest in nearly 30 years of data. The Conference Board said its index of leading economic indicators rose 1.3% in March, more than offsetting a 0.1% decline in February. All 10 0f the indicators tracked by the business research group contributed to the index gain, suggesting increasing momentum for the economy. The group credited continued COVID-19 vaccinations, some lifting of pandemic restrictions and fiscal stimulus as fueling what they forecast could be 6% growth in the U.S. economy in 2021. Friday Housing remained a bright spot in the economic recovery, with the annual rate of new home sales rising in March to the highest level since August 2006. The Commerce Department said the inventory of new houses for sale continued to hover at record lows. One sign of growing demand for new houses is that an increasing share of sales is for houses on which building has not yet started. In March, 34% of the new houses sold were not yet under construction, compared to 29% in all of 2020 and 28% in 2019.

Advisors on This Week’s Show KYLE TETTING ART ROTHSCHILD MIKE HOELZL CHRIS EVERS (with Max Hoelzl, engineered by Jason Scuglik) Week in Review (March 29-April 2, 2021) SIGNIFICANT ECONOMIC INDICATORS & REPORTS Tuesday Housing prices continued to climb at a faster rate in January. According to the S&P CoreLogic Case-Shiller home price index, prices rose 11.1% for the 12-city composite since January 2020. That was up from a 10.2% year-to-year price increase in December. Historically low housing inventory and historically low mortgage rates have combined for a strong market for sellers. The Conference Board said its consumer confidence index rose in March to its highest point since the COVID-19 pandemic plunged the economy into recession a year ago. The business research group said attitudes toward both current conditions and the near-term outlook suggested increased momentum toward stronger economic growth in coming months. Thursday U.S. labor market conditions continued to improve, according to Labor Department data showing the four-week moving average for initial unemployment claims dropping to its lowest level in more than a year. At 719,000, though, the number of new applications remained more than double the average since 1967. The Institute for Supply Management said its manufacturing index indicated expansion in March for the 10th month in a row and at the fastest pace in that streak. Survey respondents cited strong consumer demand with supply-side concerns that included logistical issues, lack of skilled labor and rising costs for raw materials. Extraordinary winter storms in the South contributed to a slowdown in construction in February. The Commerce Department said the annual pace of construction spending declined 0.8% from January but was 5.3% above the year-ago rate. Residential spending dipped 0.2% from the month before but was 21.1% ahead of where it was in February 2020. Friday U.S. employers added 916,000 jobs in March, the biggest gain in seven months, though still 8.4 million positions shy of where they were before the pandemic. The Bureau of Labor Statistics jobs report showed the unemployment rate dropping to 6% from 6.2% in February. It reached as high as 14.8% in April but before the pandemic was at a 50-year low of 3.5%.

Advisors on This Week’s Show KYLE TETTING DAVE SANDSTROM PAIGE RADKE (with Max Hoelzl and Joel Dresang, engineered by Jason Scuglik) Week in Review (March. 22-26, 2021) SIGNIFICANT ECONOMIC INDICATORS & REPORTS Monday The annual rate of existing home sales sank 6.6% to 6.2 million in February, the first setback in three months. Sales continued to track higher than year-ago rates, but the National Association of Realtors cautioned that rising mortgage rates and housing prices are cutting into affordability, threatening to further slow the pace. The median price in February was $313,000, up 15.8% from the year before, marking the 108th consecutive month of year-to-year increases. Inventories remained at record lows of 1 million houses, a two-month supply at current sales rates. Tuesday The Commerce Department and Department of Housing and Urban Development said the annual rate of new home sales slowed 18.2% in January, although it was up 8.2% from the year before and was roughly on par with levels 14 years ago. The median price for new houses rose 5.3% from the year before, a function of steady demand and low supply. The report showed the number of new houses for sale was down 4.6% from February 2020. New houses were selling at their quickest pace in any February on record, going back to 1975. Wednesday Durable goods orders fell in February for the first time in 10 months, declining 1.1% following a 3.5% gain in January. Automotive orders led a broad setback in February, although activity for commercial airlines manufacturers continued to turn around. In the latest 12 months, total orders rose 3.5%. Excluding transportation equipment, orders increased 7% from the year before. A proxy measure for business investment fell for the first time in nine months but was up 8.5% from February 2020. Thursday The U.S. economy rose at a faster pace at the end of 2020 than previously detected, according to the final fourth quarter estimate of the gross domestic product. The Bureau of Economic Analysis said the quarter grew at an annual rate of 4.3%, up from the previous estimate of 4.1%. Measured year to year, the economy shrank 2.4% from the fourth quarter of 2019, the lowest level of output since mid-2018. The Federal Reserve’s favorite measure of inflation showed a 1.2% increase since the end of 2019, remaining below the 2% target. The four-week moving average for initial unemployment claims fell for the seventh week in a row to its lowest mark in 52 weeks. Still, the average of 736,000 new claims was more than triple the average one year before, according to Labor Department data. Nearly 19 million Americans were receiving unemployment benefits in the latest week, up 4% from the week before and almost 10 times the number a year ago. Friday By far the biggest driver of the U.S. economy, consumer spending declined in February as incomes fell following the January benefit of federal relief payments. The Bureau of Economic Analysis reported that personal consumption fell 1% while personal income declined 7.1%. In January, spending rose 3.4% on a 10.1% gain in income. Adjusting for inflation, consumer spending was still 2.1% below its year-ago level. The personal saving rate dropped to 13.6% of disposable income from 19.8% in January. The Fed’s favorite inflation gauge was 1.4%. The University of Michigan’s consumer sentiment index rose in March to its highest level in a year in reaction to better-than-expected vaccination counts and the latest round of federal pandemic payments to households. The reading of 84.9 was up from 76.8 in February but still behind the 89.1 mark set in March 2020. An economist with the survey said data pointed to robust increases in consumer spending.He added that the strength and duration of consumption depends on how fast households draw down their savings.

Landaas & Company newsletter March edition now available. Advisors on This Week’s Show Brian Kilb Art Rothschild Chris Evers (with Max Hoelzl and Joel Dresang, engineered by Jason Scuglik) Week in Review (March 15-19, 2021) Monday No major announcements Tuesday A month after federal payments to households boosted consumer spending sharply, retail sales receded 3% in February. A report by the Commerce Department showed overall spending at stores was still 6.3% ahead of where it was the year before, after which sales dropped off dramatically because of the COVID-19 pandemic. The only place sales rose in February was at gas stations, where prices have been increasing. Retail spending accounts for about two-thirds of consumer spending, which drives about two-thirds of U.S. economic output. Although retail sales overall rose from the year before, bars and restaurants continued to struggle while online shopping has increased. Extraordinary winter storms in the South hit U.S. industrial output in February, setting back total production 2.2%, the first decline in five months, according to the Federal Reserve. Manufacturing output fell 3.1% from January, including a 14.5% drop-off for chemical materials production, largely based in the South. The Fed said even excluding weather effects, industrial production would still be behind its level before the pandemic. Capacity utilization fell to 72.3%, only the second monthly decline since hitting a record low of 64.2% last April. Lower capacity usage suggests less pressure for inflation. The capacity rate hasn’t hit the long-term average of 79.6% in nearly 13 years. Wednesday Despite a slower pace in both housing starts and building permits in February, a joint report from the departments of Commerce and Housing and Urban Development suggested continued progress for the housing industry. Overall, new residential construction remained near 14-year highs, although a bit lower than recent peaks. The pace of houses under construction as well as those just completed remained elevated, which offered encouragement amid longstanding signs of housing shortages. Thursday The four-week moving average for initial unemployment claims fell for the sixth week in a row, dipping below 750,000 new applications for the first time since Thanksgiving. According to Labor Department data, the level continued to decline from a record of nearly 5.8 million average claims in April but remained more than double the 55-year average and well above the pre-pandemic high. More than 18 million Americans were receiving jobless benefits in the latest week, compared to 2.1 million at the same time last year. The Conference Board’s index of leading economic indicators rose 0.2% in February, suggesting continued momentum for the U.S. economy. The pace was down from 0.5% in January and 0.4% in December. The business research group noted that an acceleration in vaccinations and additional stimulus payments were not fully captured yet in the indicators. It cited winter storms as causes of possibly transitory setbacks in a couple of indicators, including factory hours, building permits and consumer optimism. The Conference Board forecast 5.5% economic growth in 2021.

Advisors on This Week’s Show KYLE TETTING ART ROTHSCHILD MIKE HOELZL (with Max Hoelzl and Joel Dresang, engineered by Jason Scuglik) Week in Review (March 8-12, 2021) SIGNIFICANT ECONOMIC INDICATORS & REPORTS Monday No major announcements Tuesday No major announcements Wednesday The broadest measure of inflation rose 0.4% in February, more than half of it accounted for by a 6.4% increase in gasoline prices. The Bureau of Labor Statistics said its Consumer Price Index grew at a 12-month rate of 1.7%, the highest year-to-year increase since 2.3% inflation in February 2020. In the last year, gas prices rose 1.5% or less than inflation overall. Excluding volatile prices for food and energy, the core CPI rose 1.3%, slowing for the second month in a row and down from a 2.4% rate in February 2020. Thursday The gradual recovery of the labor market continued as the four-week moving average for initial unemployment claims fell for the fifth week in a row, reaching its lowest point since Thanksgiving. The 759,000-claim average compares to nearly 5.8 million in April but was still more than three times its level a year ago and more than double its average in Labor Department data going back to 1967. Weekly first-time applications fell to their lowest level in 17 weeks. U.S. employers posted 6.9 million job openings in January, the first increase in three months, as hiring rose and separations declined slightly. Overall, data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics suggests growing demand for workers as consumers received federal relief payments and COVID-19 vaccinations increased. Earlier government reports showed more than 10 million Americans unemployed and looking for work in January while an estimated 4 million at least temporarily have dropped out of the labor force. Friday Inflation on the wholesale level moderated in February, rising 0.5% following a record 1.3% gain in January. The Producer Price Index rose again mostly because of energy costs, including a 13.1% increase in gasoline prices, which accounted for 40% of the monthly gain. Excluding volatile prices for energy, food and trade services, the core PPI rose 0.2%, the 10th consecutive monthly increase. The 12-month gain in the index overall was 2.8%, the most in more than two years. The core PPI rose 2.2% from February 2020, the biggest one-year increase since May 2019. A preliminary look at consumer sentiment in March found greater optimism than any time since March 2020, attributed to prospects for COVID-19 vaccines and plans for more federal relief to households. University of Michigan researchers said gains in confidence were widespread but largest among consumers in the bottom third of incomes and those 55 and older. An economist with the survey said feedback suggests stronger consumer spending in the next year. Although expectations for inflation remain elevated for the next year, consumers anticipate prices moderating again over the long term.

Landaas & Company newsletter March edition now available. Advisors on This Week’s Show Kyle Tetting Dave Sandstrom Paige Radke (with Max Hoelzl, Joel Dresang, engineered by Jason Scuglik) Week in Review (March 1-5, 2021) SIGNIFICANT ECONOMIC INDICATORS & REPORTS Monday The manufacturing sector expanded in February at its fastest pace in three years, according to the Institute for Supply Management. The trade group’s index showed accelerating growth in new orders, production, hiring and back logs. The index has indicated expansion for nine months in a row following a three-month contraction last spring with the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic. Purchasing managers surveyed for the index expressed increasing optimism but identified constraints from labor supply and inputs such as supplier deliveries. Housing led a 1.7% increase in the pace of construction spending in January, which reached a record annual rate of nearly $1.5 trillion. The Commerce Department reported residential spending rose 2.5% from the December pace and was up 21.1% from January 2020. Low interest rates and heightened interest in home space, prompted by pandemic quarantines, have fueled a rise in homebuilding and remodeling projects. Tuesday No major announcements Wednesday The service sector of the U.S. economy expanded in February for the ninth month in a row but at the slowest pace since it contracted in May. The Institute for Supply Management said its non-manufacturing index showed continued growth for the biggest portion of the economy. Purchasing managers expressed optimism, especially with the prospect of more vaccinations. The trade group blamed the expansion’s slowdown on supply-chain challenges including production capacity constraints, material shortages and issues over logistics and employment. Thursday Another sign of manufacturing’s comeback was a 2.6% increase in factory orders in January. Orders were 1.3% ahead of the year-ago level after rising nine months in a row, including an acceleration in the last two months. Commerce Department data showed a proxy for business investments rising 8.3% from January 2020, suggesting companies have been plowing money into upgrades that could pay off as the pandemic recedes. The four-week moving average for initial unemployment claims declined for the fourth week in a row, reaching its lowest level since early December. A Labor Department report showed first-time applications still more than three times where they were a year ago. More than 18 million Americans claimed unemployment compensation in the latest week, down from 19 million the week before, but that compares to 2.1 million at the same time last year. The Bureau of Labor Statistics said worker productivity declined at an annual rate of 4.2% in the fourth quarter, the worst showing since the 1982 recession. That was down from an earlier estimate of a 4.8% decline and resulted from the number of hours worked rising at about twice the rate as the gain in output. Since the fourth quarter of 2019, productivity rose 2.4% as output declined 2.6% while hours worked fell 4.9%. Labor costs rose 4.2% from the end of 2019, the result of a 6.7% growth in wages coupled with the 2.4% gain in productivity. Friday The U.S. trade deficit widened by 1.9% in January to $68.2 billion, the Bureau of Economic Analysis reported. During the month, exports grew by 1%, led by industrial supplies and materials. Imports rose 1.2%, driven by consumer goods, probably boosted by recent economic stimulus payments to U.S. households. Compared to the first month of 2020, the trade gap expanded by 53.7% as exports declined 7.6% and imports grew 3.2%. U.S. employers added 379,000 jobs in February, recovering nearly 13 million jobs from record declines last spring. They remained 9.5 million jobs shy of the pre-pandemic peak last February. According to payroll data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics,

Landaas & Company newsletter April edition now available. Advisors on This Week’s Show BOB LANDAAS KYLE TETTING (with Jason Scuglik) Week in Review (March 30-April 3, 2020) SIGNIFICANT ECONOMIC INDICATORS & REPORTS Monday Demand for existing houses rose in February for the second month in a row, according to the National Association of Realtors. The trade association’s pending home sales index rose 2.4% from January and 9.4% from February 2019. Even though the data predated more recent fallout from the COVID-19 pandemic, an economist for the group noted that houses already were taking longer to sell. Tuesday The year-to-year rise in housing prices continued to accelerate in January. The CoreLogic Case-Shiller home price index rose 3.1% in January for the 20-city composite index, up from 2.8% in December and the seventh consecutive month of rising rates. Before disruptions from the novel coronavirus, economists generally anticipated further growth in the U.S. housing industry in 2020 because of low mortgage rates and full employment conditions. The Case-Shiller index had been above its April 2006 peak every month since January 2018. The Conference Board reported a steep decline in consumer confidence in March as its monthly confidence index sank mostly because of dashed hopes for the near-term economy. That consumers remained relatively upbeat about current conditions reflected a belief that the economy “was on solid footing” at the time of surveys, the business research group said. But an economist with the group suggested a “severe contraction” with further erosion of confidence ahead. Wednesday After two months of weak recovery, the manufacturing industry returned to a recession in March, according to an index from the Institute for Supply Management. Purchasing managers surveyed for the index cited oil-price wars and the spread of the novel coronavirus for interrupting supply chains and curtailing demand. New orders and employment components declined to their lowest points since the Great Recession. The Commerce Department said the annual rate of construction spending declined 1.3% in February. Analysts had expected an increase in the volatile indicator. Pace had quickened by 6% from the year before, with housing leading the way. Specifically, single-family residential spending rose 11.3% from February 2019. Government spending on construction fell 1.5% for the month but was up 7.4% from the year before. Thursday The four-week moving average for initial unemployment claims more than doubled the record high set the week before, with 2.6 million new applications. The Labor Department cited job displacements related to widespread COVID-19 shutdowns for the one-week spike in claims of 6.6 million, also doubling the record set the week before. Economists suggest the claims undercount employment repercussions from the pandemic because many workers don’t qualify for unemployment insurance. The U.S. trade deficit narrowed in February to its smallest gap since September 2016, the Bureau of Economic Analysis reported. The deficit shrank 12.2% to $39.9 billion with the value of exported goods and services declining 0.4% and imports falling 2.5%. Year-to-year, the trade gap closed by 18.7% with exports rising 0.3% and imports down 3.6%. A slight decline in factory orders in February was the third drop in demand in four months. Department of Commerce data showed the manufacturing picture looked even weaker if volatile transportation or defense orders were excluded. Orders for non-defense capital goods excluding aircraft—a proxy for business investments—fell for the second time in three months. Friday Employers cut 701,000 jobs in March, the first job losses after a record 113 consecutive months of gains. The Bureau of Labor Statistics cited the COVID-19 coronavirus and efforts to contain it but also noted that most of its monthly jobs data was obtained before many employers began to close.

Advisors on This Week’s Show BOB LANDAAS KYLE TETTING (with Jason Scuglik) Week in Review (March 23-27, 2020) SIGNIFICANT ECONOMIC INDICATORS & REPORTS Monday No major announcements Tuesday The U.S. housing expansion continued in February, according to new-home sales figures from the Commerce Department. The annual rate of sales declined 4.4% from January, which had been revised to the highest level since May 2007. The February pace of 765,00 houses was up 14.3% from the year before and stayed above the pre-recession level for the ninth month in a row. Wednesday Led by demand for cars and trucks, durable goods orders rose 1.2% in February, the fourth increase in five months. Excluding the volatile transportation category, orders declined 0.6%, the Commerce Department reported. Compared to the year before, overall orders gained 0.4% and rose 0.5% excluding transportation. A measure of business investment fell 0.8% from January but was up 1.5% from February 2019. Thursday The four-week moving average for initial unemployment claims rose by a record number, more than quadrupling the average from the week before. The Labor Department cited job displacements related to the COVID-19 virus for a one-week spike in claims of nearly 3.3 million, which was more than four time the previous record in data going back to 1967. Economists suggest the claims undercount employment repercussions from the pandemic because many workers don’t qualify for unemployment insurance. The Bureau of Economic Analysis confirmed earlier estimates that the gross domestic product grew at a 2.1% annual rate in the last three months of 2019. The government upwardly revised consumer spending to a growth rate of 1.8%, which was offset by a greater-than-estimated decline in business investments. The Federal Reserve’s favorite measure of inflation indicated prices still were not growing fast enough to meet the Fed’s target of 2%. For the year, GDP grew 2.3%, the lowest since 2016, when it hit 2%. Friday By far the biggest driver of the U.S. economy, consumer spending rose a mild 0.2% in February, according to the Bureau of Economic Analysis. Meanwhile, personal income gained 0.6%, raising the personal saving rate to 8.2%, the highest since last March. That was above the average of 7.3% since the Great Recession but short of the 61-year average of 8.8%. The same report showed the Fed’s favorite inflation marker rising 1.8% year to year, eclipsing the 1.6% average since the recession but below the 3.2% average since 1960. As expected, consumer sentiment took a nosedive in March, experiencing the fourth-largest decline in nearly 50 years of data. Steeper free falls accompanied the 2008 financial collapse, the 1980 recession and Hurricane Katrina, according to the University of Michigan. An economist with the survey said fallout from COVID-19 could send sentiment to the most severe two-month plunge ever. Economists consider sentiment a driving force for consumer spending.

Landaas & Company newsletter March edition now available. Advisors on This Week’s Show BOB LANDAAS KYLE TETTING (with Jason Scuglik) Week in Review (March 16-20, 2020) SIGNIFICANT ECONOMIC INDICATORS & REPORTS Monday No major announcements Tuesday With about 70% of the U.S. economy driven by consumer spending, retail sales help measure momentum. The Commerce Department reported that February sales declined 0.5% with nine of 13 categories lower than January. Gas stations, which have been selling at lower prices, led the setback, which included electronics stores, home-and-garden centers and car dealerships. Sales at online retailers rose 1.4%. Year-to-year, retail sales rose 4.3%. Industrial production continued a comeback in advance of the COVID-19 pandemic, with output rising 0.6% in February, the first gain in three months. The Federal Reserve reported that utilities led the surge in production, recovering from an unseasonably warm January. Factories increased output for the third time in four months after more than a year of struggles against a slowing global economy and uncertainty about trade policies. Capacity utilization, a leading indicator of inflation pressures, rose to 77% from 76.6% in January, remaining below the 48-year average of 79.8%, which hasn’t been reached since mid-2008. The Bureau of Labor Statistics said job openings grew 6.3% in January to nearly 7 million positions, a sign that 2020 started with continued strong demand for workers. The gain was the first since October and down from a peak of 7.5 million openings 12 months earlier. The figures still represented historically tight labor conditions, which should encourage consumer spending. Employers hired 69.9 million workers in 2019, up 1.9% from 2018 and the 10th consecutive increase. Both the number and proportion of workers quitting their jobs rose to record highs in 2019, a sign of employee confidence in being able to find new work. Wednesday Numbers for housing starts and building permits suggested brighter prospects for the housing industry in February, especially among single-family residences, which would help address concerns of low inventories. The departments of Commerce and Housing and Urban Development said single-family housing starts rose to the highest annual rate since June 2007, remaining above the pre-recession level for the eighth month in a row. Single-family completions topped 1 million for the first time since the recession. Permits authorizing further single-family building topped 1 million for the first time since May 2007. Thursday The four-week moving average for initial unemployment claims rose for the fourth week in a row, gaining 11.4% in that time, as the Labor Department said its data has begun to show repercussions from COVID-19. Weekly claims jumped by more than 30% from the week before. Historically low jobless claims have been a years-long indication of a tight labor market that encouraged consumer spending. The index of leading economic indicators rose 0.1% in February, after a 0.7% gain in January and a 0.3% setback in December. The Conference Board cautioned that its longstanding index did not yet reflect consequences from the novel coronavirus and likely included short-lived positive signs such as a rebound in manufacturing. “Declines in stock prices, consumers’ outlook on economic conditions, manufacturing new orders, average workweek in manufacturing, and rising unemployment claims will begin to negatively impact the economy,” the business research group reported. “As a result, the economy may already be entering into a period of contraction.” Friday Sales of existing houses grew 6.5% from January for the fastest February pace since 2007, according to the National Association of Realtors. The seasonally adjusted annual rate of 5.77 million houses sold in February was 7.2% ahead of the year-ago pace, the 96th straight year-to-year gain.

Advisors on This Week’s Show Bob Landaas Kyle Tetting Brian Kilb Dave Sandstrom (with Max Hoelzl and Joel Dresang) Week in Review (March 9-13, 2020) Significant economic indicators & reports Monday No major releases Tuesday No major releases Wednesday The broadest measure of inflation suggested relatively steady though low overall price increases. The Consumer Price Index gained 0.1% in February with rising costs for food and shelter offsetting a dip in energy prices. Year-to-year, the CPI increased 2.3%, led by energy costs, shelter and medical care, the Bureau of Labor Statistics reported. Excluding volatile food and energy items, the core CPI indicated a 12-month inflation rate of 2.4%, down from four months at 2.3%. Precautions against the COVID-19 virus are expected to dampen the global economy and lower inflation. Thursday Mostly because of a 3.6% drop in energy prices, wholesale inflation declined 0.6% in February, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics. But even excluding food, energy and trade services, the core Producer Price Index shrank for the first time since June. Year-to-year, the overall Producer Price Index rose 1.3% while the core rate was up 1.4%. The four-week moving average for initial unemployment claims rose for the third week in a row and the fourth time in five months, though it’s still hovering around 50-year lows. Data from the Labor Department showed jobless claims 39% below the 53-year average. The low level suggests reluctance by employers to let go of their workers in a tight employment market. Friday A preliminary reading of consumer sentiment for March showed fallen expectations for the near-term economy because of the COVID-19 pandemic. University of Michigan surveyors said the spread of the novel coronavirus and the sell-off on Wall Street dampened consumers’ outlook for the year. Expectations for the next five years rose from February, suggesting consumers see the virus as a short-term setback. A Michigan economist said sentiments will likely sink further as repercussions of the disease widen. Sentiment is considered a leading indicator of consumer spending, which drives about 70% of U.S. business activity.

Landaas & Company newsletter March edition now available. Advisors on This Week’s Show Kyle Tetting Art Rothschild Steve Giles Tom Pappenfus (with Max Hoelzl and Joel Dresang) Week in Review (March 2-6, 2020) Significant economic indicators & reports Monday The Commerce Department said the pace of construction spending rose in January for the seventh consecutive month. The average annual rate of construction spending rose 1.8% to a record $1.37 trillion. Government-funded construction and residential building rose faster than overall spending. Housing accounts for about 40% of all construction spending. The Institute for Supply Management said its manufacturing index declined in February, though it still indicated slow growth for the sector for the second month in a row. Based on surveys of purchasing managers, the index showed demand for manufactured goods shrinking, along with reduced hiring, inventories and imports. The trade group said the index suggested the U.S. gross domestic product is growing at an annual pace of 2.1%. Tuesday No major releases Wednesday In a sign of continued consumer spending, the annual rate of motor vehicle sales slowed only slightly in February but kept pace with the 12-month average. Data from the Bureau of Economic Analysis shows an annual sales pace of 16.8 million cars and light trucks in February, down 0.5% from January and up 1.9% from February 2019. Light trucks, including SUVs, continued to dominate sales, outselling cars by nearly 3-to-1. The non-manufacturing sector continued to expand in February for the 121st consecutive month. The ISM non-manufacturing index accelerated its pace of growth for the third month in a row, reaching its highest level in a year. Although expressing concerns about work shortages and possible effects of the new coronavirus outbreak, purchasing managers surveyed by the Institute for Supply Management remained positive about current business conditions and the overall economy. Thursday The four-week moving average of initial unemployment claims rose for the second week in a row and the third time in four weeks. Jobless applications were 39% below the 53-year average, which hasn’t been crossed in more than seven years, according to Labor Department data. Demand for workers should build pressure for higher wages and increased consumer spending, which drives about two-thirds of U.S. economic activity. The Bureau of Labor Statistics reported that productivity grew at an annual pace of 1.2% in the fourth quarter of 2019, down from an initial estimate of 1.4%. The productivity rate resulted from a 2.4% rise in output and a 1.2% gain in hours worked. For all of 2019, productivity averaged 1.9%, the third consecutive increase and the highest since 2010. The Commerce Department reported January factory orders declined 0.5%, the second dip in three months, and a greater decrease than analysts expected. Compared to the year before, demand for manufactured goods was unchanged and, after excluding the volatile transportation category, rose 1.4%. A measure that gauges business investments rose 1.3% from January 2019. Friday U.S. employers added 273,000 jobs in February, exceeding analyst expectations as well as the 178,000 average gain for 2019. February marked the 113th consecutive month of job gains, another record, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics. Payroll data showed that for the 19th month in a row, average hourly wages rose more than 3% from the year before. In the same report, the bureau said that the unemployment rate dropped to 3.5% from 3.6% in January, hovering at the lowest levels in 50 years. The U.S. trade deficit narrowed 6.7% to $45.3 billion in January, as both exports and imports declined. The Bureau of Economic Analysis said exports fell 0.4% from December, while imports dropped 1.6%. The three-month moving average, which smooths out the data’s volatility, reached its lowest level since mid-2018.

Hi everyone, Thanks for joining us again, this week I am joined by my colleague Prof Yee Leung, Head of Gynaecological Oncology in Western Australia, to discuss the obstetric and surgical aspects of managing the patient with an abnormally invasive placenta (accreta / increta / percreta). Please join us, listen to our conversation on the podcast and let us know if you have any comments or questions. Definitions: Accreta = the chorionic villi are in contact with the myometrium (78%) Increta = the chorionic villi invade the myometrium. (17%) Percreta = the chorionic villi penetrate the uterine serosa. (5%) Risk factors: Previous caesarean delivery: The authors of one study found that in the presence of a placenta previa, the risk of placenta accreta was 3%, 11%, 40%, 61%, and 67% for the first, second, third, fourth, and fifth or greater repeat cesarean deliveries, respectively. Placenta previa (without previous uterine surgery): 1–5% risk of placenta accreta. Any condition resulting in myometrial tissue damage followed by a secondary collagen repair, eg myomectomy, vigorous curettage resulting in Asherman syndrome, submucous leiomyomas, thermal ablation , and uterine artery embolization.
