U.S. Dec. ISM services index 57.1% vs. 57.0% expected
ECONOMIC REPORT: ISM services index shows steady growth
By Rex Nutting, MarketWatch Last Update: 10:17 AM ET Jan 4, 2007
WASHINGTON (MarketWatch) - The services sectors of the U.S. economy continued to grow at a steady rate in December, the private Institute for Supply Management reported Thursday.
The ISM's nonmanufacturing sentiment index fell to 57.1% in December from 58.9% in November, close to expectations.
Readings over 50% indicate growth. The index has been above 50% for 45 straight months.
Employment, inventories, exports and imports increased at a faster pace in December. New orders increased at a slower pace. More firms paid higher prices for inputs.
"The overall indication in December is continued economic growth in the non-manufacturing sector, but at a slower pace than in November," said Anthony Nieves, chairman of the ISM's survey committee, in a press release. Nieves is a vice president for supply management at Hilton Hotels Corp.
Comments from purchasing managers were mixed, but generally positive.
Nine of 18 industries were growing in December, led by real estate, finance, utilities, wholesale trade, and accommodation.

WASHINGTON (MarketWatch) -- Orders for U.S.-made factory goods rose 0.9% in November on strong demand for computers, transportation equipment and defense goods, the Commerce Department reported Thursday.
But excluding transportation, orders for U.S. goods fell by 0.5% in November, suggesting slack in the overall manufacturing sector.
The monthly orders and shipments data are very volatile.
Orders for durable goods rose 1.6% in November, down from the 1.9% estimated by the government a week ago.
Orders for nondurables, meanwhile, were flat.
The report points to weaker growth in the factory sector in November. But it follows a rise in a key manufacturing index in December that was reported Wednesday. The ISM's manufacturing sentiment index rose to 51.4% from 49.5% in November. Readings over 50% indicate the sector is growing. It was the first increase in the index since July.
Economists were expecting a gain of 1.2% for factory orders in November, according to a survey conducted by MarketWatch.
Orders for defense capital goods rose by a huge 34.8% in November, nearly reversing the 39.1% decrease in October. In September, orders for defense capital goods rose 39.8%.
Orders for computers and electronic components rose 7.7% in November, according to the report. Orders for transportation equipment climbed 8.2%.
Excluding defense, orders for factory goods rose 0.1% in November.
Orders for factory goods are up 5.8% year-to-date, while shipments are up 5.1%. The figures are not adjusted for price changes.
Shipments of factory goods increased 0.1% in November after rising by the same amount in October.
Shipments of durable goods rose 0.2%, revised from 0.1% estimated a week ago.
Realtors see signs of stabilization in pending sales index
U.S. pending home sales index down 11.4% year-on-year
U.S. Nov. pending home sales index down 0.5%
ECONOMIC REPORT: Pending home sales dip 0.5% in November; Realtors see housing market correction bottoming out

WASHINGTON (MarketWatch) - A leading indicator of existing-home sales dipped 0.5% in November, the third straight decline, the National Association of Realtors reported Thursday.
The pending home sales index fell to 107.0 November from 107.5 in October. The index is based on sales contracts for existing homes signed in November. Sales of existing homes are reported in a separate release once the sale closes, usually within a month or two.
The real estate trade group said the index is pointing to stabilization in the housing market.
The pending sales index is down 11.4% from November 2005. In July, when the index hit a three-year low of 105.6, the year-over-year decline was 16%.
"Because there is a stronger parallel between changes in the index from a year ago and the actual pace of home sales in coming months, the index is pointing toward fairly stable home sales in the near future," said NAR chief economist David Lereah, in a press release. "That is another indicator that home sales likely bottomed-out in September."
Sales of existing homes were down 10.7% year-on-year through November's sales at 6.28 million seasonally adjusted annualized units. December's sales figures will be released on Jan. 25.
The realtors' group continues to forecast a gradual improvement in home sales by the end of the year.
Regionally, pending home sales fell 2.8% in the Northeast, 1.1% in the South and 2.6% in the West. Pending home sales rose 4.8% in the Midwest.
Pending sales are down about 16% year-over-year in the West.
