Shipments of manufactured durable goods in January, down six consecutive months, decreased $7.5 billion or 4.0 percent to $182.4 billion, revised from the previously published 3.7 percent decrease. This also was the longest streak of consecutive monthly decreases since the series was first published on a NAICS basis in 1992 and followed a 1.5 percent December decrease.
Shipments of manufactured nondurable goods, up following five consecutive monthly decreases, increased $1.0 billion or 0.5 percent to $187.0 billion. This followed a 5.1 percent December decrease. This increase was due to petroleum and coal products, which increased $2.7 billion or 9.4 percent to $32.0 billion.
