The Domestic Nonfinancial Economy
Gross Domestic Product
According to the BEA’s final estimate, real GDP increased at an annual rate of
3.9 percent in the first quarter after a rise of 4.1 percent in the fourth quarter of
last year. The final estimate was 1/2 percentage point lower than the estimate
published in last month’s preliminary release. Much of the revision was the
result of the incorporation of new and revised data on trade in goods and
services that now show a larger drag from net exports than had been reported
last month. PCE services also were revised down somewhat reflecting the
BEA’s inclusion of new source data on explicit banking services.
Real final sales rose at an annual rate of 3.2 percent last quarter after having
increased 3.4 percent in the preceding quarter. Among the components of final
demand, real PCE moved up at an annual rate of 3.8 percent, as a decline in
motor vehicles spending was more than offset by a pickup in spending on other
durables, nondurables, and services. Real business fixed investment rose at a
rate of 5.3 percent, and residential investment increased at a pace of
4.6 percent; each marked a stepdown from its fourth-quarter pace. Total
government consumption and investment rose at an annual rate of 3 percent
because of a surge in national defense spending. Net exports shaved about
3/4 percentage point from the change in real GDP last quarter after having been
a smaller drag in the fourth quarter. Real private inventories accumulated at an
annual rate of $25.5 billion, following a $9 billion accrual in the fourth quarter,
and boosted the change in real GDP by nearly 3/4 percentage point.
The chain-weighted price index for GDP rose at an annual rate of 2.8 percent in
the first quarter. Core PCE prices rose at a rate of 2 percent, 1/4 percentage
point more than in the preliminary release. The upward revision reflected
incoming data on prices for which market-based source data are not
available—mostly the price of imputed banking services. The four-quarter
change in core PCE prices was 1.3 percent, compared with a 1.6 percent
increase over the year-earlier period.
On the income side of the accounts, real disposable personal income rose
4.9 percent in the first quarter, and the saving rate moved up to 2.2 percent, the
same figure as in the preliminary release. The staff estimates that compensation
per hour in the nonfarm business sector rose at an annual rate of 4.7 percent last
quarter. Finally, economic profits (corporate profits with inventory valuation
and capital consumption adjustments) increased $20.9 billion last quarter, far
short of the $81.4-billion jump in the fourth quarter, but quite close to our
expectations. As a share of GNP, profits (excluding Federal Reserve banks)
held steady at 10.5 percent.

Consumer Sentiment
According to the final report, the Michigan Survey Research Center's (SRC)
index of consumer sentiment jumped in June to 95.6, more than reversing its
decline in the previous month. The implicit level in the second half of the
month was 96.2, a moderate increase over the first half reading of 95.2.
For the month as a whole, both the "current conditions" component and the
"expected conditions" component of the overall index strengthened. Within the
"current conditions" component, assessments of buying conditions for large
household appliances improved despite recent increases in interest rates. In
contrast, consumers' assessments of their current personal financial situation fell
a touch relative to last month. Within the "expected conditions" component,
consumers' assessments of their expected financial condition in the next twelve
months moved up, and assessments of business conditions over both the next
twelve months and five years rebounded sharply from their May lows.
Among those items not included in the overall index, consumers' expectations
about the change in unemployment over the next twelve months improved
considerably in June. Consumers' appraisals of buying conditions for cars and
houses were roughly unchanged.
Compared with May, the June reading on median expected inflation over the
next twelve months was unchanged at 3.3 percent while the median of expected
inflation over the next five to ten years edged up a bit to 2.9 percent. Both
figures are a shade below those in the preliminary report for the first half of
June.
Home Sales
Homebuying remained robust in May, with sales of both new and existing
homes reaching new records. New home sales jumped 14.8 percent to an annual
rate of 1.37 million units.1 In addition, sales in the previous three months were
revised up 5-1/2 percent. The stock of new homes for sale edged down to
372,000 units last month; at the elevated May sales pace, this stock amounted to
a record low 3.3 months' supply. Sales of existing homes increased 2.6 percent
in May to an annual rate of 6.8 million units. The inventory of homes for sale
1. Our contact at the Census Bureau believes that the May level of sales may be
revised down as much as 5 percent next month. The Census mechanically adjusts its
preliminary sales figures to reflect the usual pattern of late reports, and the adjustment
depends on the number of late reports in recent months. Because April had an
unusually large number of late reports and May had an unusually large number of
on-time reports, our contact thinks that the typical imputation procedure overstated the
number of late reports that will come in during the next month.

edged up to 2.37 million units in May, but still represented a low 4.2 months’
supply.
The average price of new homes sold in May was 5.3 percent higher than a year
earlier; this increase is in the middle of the range of price increases seen in
recent years. The median price of new homes sold in May was 1.5 percent
higher than a year earlier; this price increase is toward the lower end of the
range of recent median price increases. The most recent reading for the
constant-quality price index for new homes, which adjusts for changes in
geographic composition and in home size and other amenities, was an increase
of 5.8 percent for the year ending in the first quarter of 2004.
The average price of existing homes was 10.6 percent higher in May than a year
earlier, and the median price was 10.3 percent higher. Both of these increases
are near the upper end of their respective ranges since early 2002. These price
series do not adjust for compositional changes in the structural characteristics
and amenities of homes sold. The most recent data for the repeat-sales price
index for existing homes—which holds constant some of the compositional
shifts that can affect the median and average prices—was 8.5 percent higher in
the first quarter than a year earlier, the same rate of increase as that recorded in
the fourth quarter of last year. These increases are the most rapid since early
1980.2
Orders and Shipments of Capital Goods
New orders for durable goods dropped back for a second month in May. The
staff's constructed series on real adjusted durable goods orders—which strips
out nondefense aircraft, defense capital goods, and industries for which reported
orders actually equal shipments—moved down 1.6 percent in May after having
fallen 3.7 percent in April. These declines followed several months of sizable
increases, and the trend in real adjusted durable goods orders, as measured by
the three-month moving average, continued to edge higher in May.
New orders for nondefense capital goods excluding aircraft declined 3 percent
in May following a decrease of 2 percent in April. In the high-tech sector,
bookings of computers and peripherals dropped back 3.6 percent, and
communications orders tumbled 12.9 percent. In both cases, the declines
reversed part of the larger gains recorded in April. Outside of the high-tech
sector, orders weakened 1.2 percent as bookings for construction machinery and
metalworking machinery retraced some of the outsized gains experienced over
the past six months. Nonetheless, the overall level of new orders for nondefense

capital goods excluding aircraft remained above the level of shipments in May
for the fourth consecutive month.
Shipments of nondefense capital goods excluding aircraft also turned down in
May. In the high-tech sector, shipments of computers and peripheral equipment
slumped 10.7 percent, and shipments of communications equipment contracted
1.3 percent. Outside of the high-tech sector, shipments declined 1.4 percent in
May with broad-based declines occurring in the machinery category.
The book value of inventories held by durable goods manufacturers increased at
an annual rate of $13.5 billion in May, led by stockbuilding at machinery
manufacturers. Shipments of total durable goods slipped 0.7 percent in May,
and the inventory-shipments ratio ticked up to 1.38 months.
