You wage war on the private sector and you expect good economic new? Maybe you should put down the crack pipe for a while.

new claims for unemployment benefits rose by 34,000 last week, reversing a drop that was seen in the previous week.
Excuse me.
Where is the "unexpectedly"?

sounds more like a confession than a news story. My main quarrel with this kind of dope is with the real estate shysters who just can’t resist trying to talk the housing market up-——couldn’t get around to mentioning that foreclosures are just powering along.

20 years or so to go on the residential real estate downtrend, BTW. It won’t have any chance of going up, until all of the foreclosures and short sales are done, and property taxes, adjusted properly, steeply downward.

Don’t know but crude oil prices are on a sharp uptick today, both domestic and foreign. Looks like the gas price plummet has run its course and is starting northward again. Bad news for Barry’s election chances when the this all crests in October.

"What is the cause for this today?"
Perhaps huge sums of funny bond investments slowly reloaded into stocks for next summer's dollar magic and tourist enticement show (next re-stuffing of bonds w/ propaganda blitz--dollar artificially up, oil artificially down). It's beginning to be a yearly May-June occurrence.
Then every late summer or early fall, lo and behold, China didn't collapse. Our US debt ceiling is raised again. Oil goes up. The dollar goes down. The debt regime rolls on a little longer...somehow.
What's fascinating is how long they keep it going without anywhere near adequate US manufacturing production or much of any other real work. A nation of overpaid political regulators, propagandists and pensioned colleagues sitting on their butts, plotting and scheming.

Good News! The entire country gets to go on disability!
Then we’ll import workers from places even more Hellish than the New America to actually do stuff!
