This news definitely will be the lead item tonight on CBS.../Sarcasm ;-)
It's Bush's fault!
Exactly -- this labor market is sizzlin'
It usually takes me about 8 weeks to find a good computer programming job when I put my mind to it. This time it took me 6.
BUSH LIED! JOBLESS RECOVERY DIED! ;-)
Every sector up but government which is down 27K. Cannot ask for anything better. Even a substantial recovery in MFG. Tax revenues are starting to rise for the states. Kudlow calling for 15-20 percent rally in the stock market this summer. To top it all off gas at my local station was 1.85 last night down 10 cents from a week ago.
Congrats, Laz!
Most analysts expected 250,000 with the "whispered number" at 350,000. The markets will be down today because these will be "disappointing numbers".
Odds are, if past is prologue, May figures will be revised up, too.
Why? It's not like I got married or anything.
And we all know how that worked out for me....
;^)
hehehe
lol!
947,000 new jobs in 3 months! Excellent news!
And buy an assault weapon this weekend.
Who knows.
The whispered number would have sparked a sell off, with expectations of even bigger Fed tightening.
Difficult to see a negative spin on this, but I'm sure the networks will give it a whirl somehow lol!
Heck, why not? ;-)
But beware, the labor shortage! I was reading a news story about the 1.8 percent unemployment rate in northern Virginia and the reporter had to point out that when the unemployment rate went below 2 percent, we would be in danger (we're doomed) of a labor shortage.
hehe, Dan, Peter and Tom are working on it right now ;-)
