I fixed the italics tag. Something weird in the formatting where the first letter was getting put in brackets, and the first letter of an entry was "I," so a tag open that was, naturally, never closed.

Plus the jobs report was taken as a good thing.

Which is odd... considering there was only 116,000 jobs created or so... and there weren't that many people who left the market too... about an equal amount.

 

All I can imagine is that there were almost no new workers /people looking for work this month.

 

what are you telling me you dont  believe nearly 1 million people found work last month!? 

these numbers a clearly fixed. unemployment hasnt been below 8% since obama took office, the month before the elecion it gets down to below 8%. how convenient. these number will get revised up. they are really about 8.2%. but by the time they get corrected. it will be after the election.

labor force participation is still at 30 year lows.

I think the Buereu of Labor statistics is too inefficent to fix anything.

Really if anything i'd expect the job numbers to be revised upwords, because consumer sentiment was reported as up.

It's weird for sentiment to be up, but hiring to be down.

 

Actually thinking about it, the unemployment rate probably went down with such a weak number because i believe jobs numbers are seasonally adjusted, while unemployment rate isn't.  So it could be due to a big Christmas boom of part time help.
