I think that's partly true. There were some lower numbers for a week or so because Sandy messed up the reporting. So I'd say maybe half of the increase belongs to the last couple of weeks, and the rest is for this week. Still a 400k week, and not good news.
For perspective that’s like laying off 2/3 of the entire population of Alaska.
Did the full article also mention that the “comfortable 355,000 per week” were all revised upward as expected!
