Seasonal And Birth Death Adjustments Add 429,000 Statistical “Jobs”
“...the BLS “added” 377K jobs for seasonal purposes. This was the largest seasonal addition in the past decade for a July NFP print in the past decade, possibly ever...the Birth Death adjustment, which adds to the NSA Print to get to the final number, was +52k. How does this compare to July 2011? It is about 1000% higher...In other words, of the 163,000 jobs “added”, 429,000 was based on purely statistical fudging.”
