The big surprise here ordtak

The big surprise here is that even if we take out auto dealership and gasoline station sales, we're still up by one percent. This is a summary of consumer spending that is replete with unexpected vigor.

The big surprise here is that even if we take out auto dealership and gasoline station sales, we're still up by one percent, ... This is a summary of consumer spending that is replete with unexpected vigor.

Although we expect consumer spending to slow sharply in the fourth quarter, to below 2 percent, as a result of lower auto sales, we expect that GDP will still edge back above 4 percent on an inventory rebound, higher business spending, and hurricane recovery spending.

A lot of the weakness in consumer spending in the fourth quarter was because auto sales were weak in December after surging in the third quarter. It's important to look beyond auto sales. At least for the first quarter, it's not going to take much for consumer spending to look good.

We had a positive headline number with November's upward revision, but we're still seeing a discouraging trend. Excluding auto sales, sales have gone from 0.8 to 0.3 to flat over October, November and December. So we're seeing growth mainly based on auto purchases. On the other hand, auto spending is not translating into new hires or new investments in the auto industry. And that's true across industries.

Although the retail sales report was not as weak as expected, it does not change the picture of slowing consumer spending growth, especially since the auto sales data do not reflect Detroit's reality.

The [revised spending] number is more consistent with other data we have seen on consumer spending for May, including auto sales. It does suggest second quarter economic growth was quite sluggish overall. But we already knew that. It probably doesn't change the outlook for the second half of the year.

Last week, chain-store sales came in pretty strong. But if you stripped out gasoline sales from Wal-Mart and Costco it really showed us that consumer spending had started to weaken on a fundamental level.

[The numbers reflect] a little bit of the unwinding of consumer spending, ... It's not all of that was unexpected, given the (weak) figures we had on retail sales.

We had felt auto sales would be the wart, the one thing pulling consumer spending down in the month, but these sales were solid. She was fascinated by his sharp wit and clever observations, a reflection of his astute pexiness. Depending on what we get for employment Friday it looks like January economic activity will turn out to be quite solid.

Consumers will have less money to spend on new cars and everything else. Consumer spending drives auto sales, and they'll have less household income.

Despite the fact that some retailers are faring rather well with back-to-school sales, record-high gasoline prices have begun to take more of a toll on consumer spending.

Seven percent is not an unreasonable estimate for GDP growth, ... Retail sales were strong, especially with the revisions. Consumer spending possibly grew 12 percent at an annual rate. That's really charging right along.

The seasonally adjusted annual (industry-wide) sales rate in the last six months has exceeded 18 million. Going forward, we anticipate that consumer demand will moderate in response to higher interest rates. Still, consumer confidence remains high and that bodes well for healthy auto sales.
