The Commerce Department reports orders for U.S.-made durable goods dropped a seasonally adjusted 0.5% in April. Commercial aircarft fell 4% and computer orders dropped 3.4%, partly offsetting a big gain in March. Leaving out autos and aircraft, whose bookings are unpredictable from month to month, orders minus transportation rose 0.5%. That’s the second increase in a row after five straight monthly declines.  A key measure of business investment outside the volatile defense and transportation industries rose for the second straight month and posted the strongest back-to-back increase in a year. Core capital-goods orders advanced 1% after a revised 1.5% gain in March.
