(RTTNews) - Sebagian besar mencerminkan penurunan tajam dalam pesanan pesawat, Departemen Perdagangan merilis laporan pada hari Selasa yang menunjukkan pesanan baru untuk barang tahan lama buatan AS merosot jauh lebih buruk dari perkiraan pada bulan Februari.
Departemen Perdagangan mengatakan pesanan barang tahan lama anjlok sebesar 1,4 persen pada bulan Februari setelah turun sebesar 0,5 persen yang direvisi pada bulan Januari.
Para ekonom memperkirakan pesanan barang tahan lama akan turun sebesar 0,5 persen dibandingkan dengan pembacaan yang tidak berubah yang dilaporkan untuk bulan sebelumnya.
Penurunan pesanan barang tahan lama yang jauh lebih besar dari perkiraan terjadi karena pesanan peralatan transportasi anjlok sebesar 5,4 persen pada bulan Februari setelah merosot sebesar 1,9 persen pada bulan Januari.
Pesanan pesawat dan suku cadang non-pertahanan memimpin penurunan, anjlok sebesar 28,6 persen, sementara pesanan pesawat dan suku cadang pertahanan juga merosot sebesar 3,8 persen.
Tidak termasuk penurunan tajam dalam pesanan peralatan transportasi, pesanan barang tahan lama naik sebesar 0,8 persen pada bulan Februari setelah naik sebesar 0,3 persen pada bulan Januari. Pesanan di luar transportasi diperkirakan akan meningkat sebesar 0,5 persen.
Laporan tersebut menunjukkan lonjakan sebesar 4,9 persen dalam pesanan komputer dan produk terkait bersama dengan peningkatan yang signifikan dalam pesanan logam primer dan mesin.
Departemen Perdagangan juga mengatakan pesanan barang modal non-pertahanan tidak termasuk pesawat, indikator utama pengeluaran bisnis, naik sebesar 0,6 persen pada bulan Februari setelah turun sebesar 0,4 persen pada bulan Januari.
Pengiriman dalam kategori yang sama, yang merupakan data sumber untuk investasi peralatan dalam PDB, tumbuh sebesar 0,9 persen pada bulan Februari setelah tidak berubah pada bulan Januari.
"Pesanan barang tahan lama utama sedikit lebih lemah dari perkiraan pada bulan Februari," kata Bernard Yaros, Ekonom Utama AS di Oxford Economics. "Namun, pesanan inti, yang memberikan tolok ukur yang lebih jelas tentang rencana investasi bisnis, melampaui ekspektasi."
"Ini adalah pembacaan pra-perang, meskipun, dan risiko geopolitik secara historis telah merusak pengeluaran bisnis," tambahnya. "Bahkan begitu, pengeluaran peralatan bisnis menuju perang Iran dengan momentum yang cukup."

"Core capex data argues against recession, but the 28.6% aircraft plunge demands explanation — if it reflects demand destruction rather than timing, the headline weakness may be predictive, not transitory."

Headline miss masks a genuine split in the data. Core capex (non-defense capital goods ex-aircraft) beat at +0.6% orders and +0.9% shipments — the latter feeds directly into GDP equipment investment and signals business spending resilience. The -1.4% headline is almost entirely aircraft noise: non-defense aircraft orders fell 28.6%, likely Boeing (BA) delivery timing or airline capex pullback, not broad-based weakness. Ex-transportation, orders rose 0.8% vs. 0.5% expected. The real risk: Yaros's caveat about geopolitical headwinds is vague. If this is a 'prewar reading,' we need clarity on whether Feb data already reflects Iran tensions or if March-forward capex gets repriced lower. The computer orders spike (+4.9%) is encouraging but small in absolute terms.

Pendapat Kontra

If aircraft orders are collapsing this sharply, it signals either a demand cliff (airlines/defense cutting) or a supply/financing crunch — neither is 'noise.' And core capex shipments growing 0.9% is still modest; if that momentum doesn't sustain into Q1 GDP, the 'beat' becomes a false signal of strength.

"Core capital goods orders are proving more resilient than headline figures suggest, indicating that corporate investment remains a primary driver of economic stability."

The headline 1.4% drop is a classic 'noise vs. signal' trap. While the Boeing-driven volatility in non-defense aircraft orders drags down the top-line, the 0.6% rise in non-defense capital goods excluding aircraft (a proxy for business capex) is the real story here. This suggests that despite high interest rates, firms are still committing to long-term productivity investments. The 4.9% surge in computer orders further underscores a pivot toward AI-integrated hardware spending. As long as these core metrics hold, the industrial sector is showing surprising resilience. I’m looking at the Industrial Select Sector SPDR Fund (XLI) as a beneficiary if this momentum persists through Q2.

Pendapat Kontra

The 'momentum' cited could be a lagging indicator of decisions made in a lower-rate environment, and the 28.6% drop in aircraft orders signals a deeper supply chain fragility that will eventually bleed into broader manufacturing output.

"The headline durable goods miss is likely dominated by volatile aircraft/transportation orders, while core and equipment-related categories suggest business spending demand is not yet breaking."

Durable goods orders fell 1.4% vs -0.5% expected, and the miss looks concentrated in transportation equipment (down 5.4%), especially non-defense aircraft (-28.6%)—which is notoriously volatile and not a clean read on broad capex demand. The “ex-transportation”/core signal is still positive (up 0.8% vs +0.5% expected), and non-defense capital goods excluding aircraft rose 0.6% while shipments (GDP equipment input) grew 0.9%. Net: headline noise, but business investment may be holding up. The key watch item is whether this holds over 2–3 months rather than reverting with aircraft swings.

Pendapat Kontra

The category mix may be hiding broader weakness: revisions/one-month volatility could still imply a downturn in the real economy if aircraft declines signal order deferrals across aerospace suppliers. Also, geopolitical risk cited as a headwind could worsen quickly, and orders can turn faster than shipments.

"Core non-defense capital goods ex-aircraft shipments rose 0.9%, directly feeding stronger equipment investment in Q1 GDP."

Headline durable goods orders plunged 1.4% in February, far worse than the expected -0.5%, driven by a 28.6% crash in non-defense aircraft orders and 3.8% drop in defense aircraft—classic volatility from lumpy Boeing/GE deliveries. But strip out transport, and orders rose 0.8% (beat 0.5% est.); critically, non-defense cap goods ex-aircraft (business investment proxy) climbed 0.6% with shipments up 0.9%, accelerating from flat in Jan. This bolsters Q1 GDP equipment spending outlook, favoring machinery/primary metals gains seen in computers (+4.9%), metals, machinery. Oxford's Yaros nails it: core beats matter more than noise.

Pendapat Kontra

Aircraft orders' outsized swing hides potential broader manufacturing caution, especially with January revised weaker (-0.5% vs. prior flat) and looming geopolitical risks that historically curb capex momentum.

"Aircraft order collapse signals potential capex pullback by financially stressed airlines, not supply-side noise—watch Q1 shipment revisions before declaring resilience."

Everyone's treating aircraft as exogenous noise, but ChatGPT's caveat about 'order deferrals across aerospace suppliers' deserves harder scrutiny. If airlines are deferring capex due to financing stress or demand softness, that bleeds into supplier margins and inventory cuts—which *will* show in Q1 shipments, not just orders. The 0.9% shipment beat masks timing; we need February-March trend data before calling core capex 'resilient.' Geopolitical risk is real but secondary to the financing question.

"The positive core capex data is likely a lagging reflection of backlogs rather than a forward-looking indicator of industrial health."

Gemini’s focus on XLI ignores the capital intensity of the current cycle. While core capex shows a heartbeat, the 0.9% shipment growth is likely a 'last gasp' of pre-existing backlogs. If aircraft orders are truly collapsing, the supply chain contagion will hit the industrial mid-caps harder than the broad XLI index suggests. We are seeing a divergence where high-margin tech-capex (computers) hides a broader, more structural decay in traditional manufacturing capacity that won't show up until Q2 earnings.

"The “backlog only” argument is speculative without evidence of shipment roll-over, while composition/timing distortions in ex-transportation demand are an under-discussed risk."

I’m less persuaded by Gemini’s “last gasp/backlog” narrative. The shipments beat (+0.9%) is specifically what bridges orders to near-term GDP equipment investment; if it’s only backlog liquidation, we should expect future shipments to roll over, but nobody here shows the required deterioration in prior months/revisions. The bigger unflagged risk is measurement: aircraft-driven composition effects can distort “ex-transportation” interpretation if suppliers re-time orders into other categories.

"Core capex beats show no aircraft spillover yet, with AI-driven computer orders signaling real investment momentum."

Claude's supplier bleed and Gemini's supply chain contagion are speculative without shipment deterioration evidence—core non-defense capex ex-aircraft has beaten three straight months, shipments accelerating to +0.9% from Jan's flat. Unflagged upside: computers (+4.9%) and machinery gains align with AI/data center buildout, not noise. January's -0.5% revision tempers acceleration hype, but no broad weakness yet; XLI still playable if March confirms.
