About Core Capital Goods Orders

What it measures

Core Capital Goods Orders (FRED series NEWORDER) measures new orders for nondefense capital goods excluding aircraft, capturing business equipment demand such as machinery, computers, and electrical gear while stripping out lumpy aircraft bookings and government defense contracts. The Census Bureau publishes it monthly within the durable goods report, seasonally adjusted in nominal dollars, and it is the most watched line of that release.

Why it matters

This series is the standard high-frequency proxy for business capital expenditure plans, revealing whether firms are confident enough in future demand to invest in equipment. Capex drives productivity growth and amplifies the business cycle, so a rollover in core orders is a respected early recession warning. GDP forecasters map it almost directly into the equipment investment component, and it is a bellwether for industrial and technology capital-equipment suppliers.

How to read it

Compare orders with the companion core capital goods shipments series: orders above shipments imply a building backlog and future production growth, while the reverse means the pipeline is draining. The data are nominal, so in high-inflation periods flat real investment can masquerade as growth. Month-to-month moves are modest and revised; the year-over-year trend and three-month momentum carry the real signal.
