US Data: Highlights of MNI Survey of Economic Forecasts 

Repeats Story Initially Transmitted at 22:06 GMT Jan 31/17:06 EST Jan 31
     WASHINGTON (MNI) - The following are highlights of forecasts for   
upcoming U.S. economic indicators provided by participants in the MNI   
weekly survey. The comment section presents the key elements behind the 
median forecasts.         
Domestic Motor Vehicle Sales for January (mln units, saar)                  
 Friday, February 1                                      Actual:        
               Median         Range                  Jan19  Dec18  Nov18
 Sales Ex GM                                            --   9.9m   9.8m
     Comments: The SAAR for domestic-made vehicle sales is expected to 
hold steady around a 9.9 million pace in January after a small rebound 
in December, but with some upside risk. Seasonal adjustment factors will 
be a large addition to January unadjusted sales after being a 
subtraction in December. Offsetting that will be a delay of any 
purchases by furloughed government employees that might have otherwise 
occurred in January. 
Nonfarm Payrolls for January (change in thousands)                     
 Friday, February 1 at 8:30 a.m. ET                      Actual:        
               Median         Range                  Jan19  Dec18  Nov18
 Payrolls       +167k    +135k to +190k                 --  +312k  +176k
 Private Jobs   +175k    +150k to +180k                 --  +301k  +173k
 Jobless Rate    3.9%     3.8% to 4.0%                  --   3.9%   3.7%
 Hrly Earnings  +0.2%    +0.2% to +0.3%                 --  +0.4%  +0.2%
 Avg Wkly Hrs    34.5     34.5 to 34.5                  --   34.5   34.4
     Comments: Nonfarm payrolls are forecast to rise by 167,000 in 
January after a much stronger-than-expected 312,000 increase in 
December, leaving the two-month average above 200,000. The private 
payrolls measure is expected to show a 175,000 gain. Now that furloughed 
federal government employees are assured of receiving backpay (the law 
was passed on January 16), the impact on the government jobs category 
will be minimal as BLS will count the sidelined employees as working. 
So, much of the impact from the shutdown will be seen for government 
contractors, not the government employees themselves. 
     The unemployment rate is expected to be unchanged from 3.9% in the 
previous month. A large impact will be seen from the government workers, 
who will be considered as temporarily laid off for the purposes of 
household employment, cutting the measure of employed and boosting the 
level of unemployed. This will temporarily lift the unemployment rate, 
with a likely reversal in February now that the shutdown has ended. 
     Hourly earnings are forecast to rise 0.2% after a 0.4% gain in the 
previous month, while the average workweek is expected to hold steady at 
34.5 hours. Earnings and hours worked for government employees are not 
included in the data, but the impact of the shutdown could still be seen 
for government contractors. Annual revisions to the establishment survey 
will be released with this month's data. 
ISM Manufacturing Index for January                                       
 Friday, February 1 at 10:00 a.m. ET                    Actual:
               Median         Range                  Jan19  Dec18  Nov18
 Mfg ISM         54.1     53.8 to 55.0                  --   54.3   58.8
     Comments: The ISM manufacturing index is expected to dip slightly 
to a reading of 54.1 in January after falling to a revised 54.3 in 
December. Regional conditions data have been mixed, while the flash 
Markit estimate rose to 54.9 from 53.8 in December. 
Construction Spending for November (percent change)                        
 Friday, February 1 at 10:00 a.m. ET                    Actual:
               Median         Range                  Nov18  Oct18  Sep18

University of Michigan Survey for January (final)          
 Friday, February 1 at 10:00 a.m. ET                     Actual:
                Median        Range                 Jan19f Jan19p  Dec18
 Consumer Sent    91.0    90.5 to 91.3                  --   90.7   98.3
     Comments: The Michigan Sentiment index is expected to be revised up 
to a reading of 91.0 in January from the 90.7 preliminary estimate, 
keeping the index well below the 98.3 reading in December due to 
concerns about the government shutdown.
