I suspect the numbers to increase after the holidays... don't businesses usually get a bit busier around this time due to christmas sales? This decrease in the unemployment is just a bubble effect, or reverse bubble, effect... so is this really "good news?" ...not really

Yes, seasonal factor is at play now. Coming new year, the unemployment number may go up. Or they massage the data furiously to make sure it would never go over 10%.:-)
Still the raw number of job loss would be going up, data manipulation or not.
