Afternoon Note
Well, economic data continues to come in better than expected with initial jobless claims and factory orders beating the street today. The $471.7 billion in factory orders was paced by a $4.5 billion increase in new orders, which soared 3.1% ex-defense.
The real story today, however, is the GOP gets its act together and passes a budget in the House. Like everything else, it doesn’t mean this is a done deal by any means. That said, the market sent Washington, D.C., and Republicans, a clear message when the market spurted higher on the news.
