U.S. Financial Data
THE WEEK'S HIGHLIGHTS:
>/ Real disposable personal income expanded at a 5.3 percent
annual rate during May following a 2.6 percent rate of decline in
April. Real income in May was up 2.3 percent, compared with a
year earlier.
*/ Real personal spending increased at a 1.2 percent annual rate
during May after increasing at an 11.7 percent rate in April.
Spending was up 3.1 percent over May 1992.
s/ Orders for durable goods decreased 1.6 percent during May after
falling 0.2 percent in April. Orders for the first five months of the
year were up 8.8 percent, compared with the same period a year
earlier.
*/ Because of a weakening German economy and political unrest
in Japan, the dollar has surged recently, rising to Y 110.20 and
DM 1.6921 for the week ending June 23—an increase of 3.5 per­
cent and 3.9 percent, respectively, during the past two weeks.
Compared with six months earlier, the dollar is down 10.7percent
against the yen and up 8 percent against the deutsche mark.
