This happens every year during the holidays. It’s weird that Xidinskyyyyyyyy’s “experts” never realized that. Retailers have to hire more help during Christmas.
October was revised down by 45,000, from +150,000 to +105,000, and the change for November was revised down by 26,000, from +199,000 to +173,000. With these revisions, employment in October and November combined is 71,000 lower than previously reported.
Same stuff as when Obama was in. Fake numbers, then everyone says everything is ok. Real numbers come out later and its’ “Unexpected”.
These are phony stats. Many people have gone into early retirement and don’t appear as unemployed.
there has been significant downward revisions every month under zhao biden. How do they miss a number by 30% other than outright fraud??
A 70%, or more, REDUCTION in the number of "government employees" would go a long way toward reducing taxpayer burden, but the votes from those "government employees" are purchased via employment and benefits, so it will NEVER happen.
Since ALL media is controlled, a taxpayer revolt can't be communicated to the populace (the ones who actually PRODUCE things, or PROVIDE things, and get taxed up-the-ass to fund non-citizens, and inner-city tribal parasites).
Exactly. And this report will be revised downward next quarter. Same old game. Get the positive headlines out there, revise the data downward later while everyone has “moved on”. What a joke. No credibility.
Do the illegals who are put up in hotels across the country (at taxpayer expense) count as unemployed? Or are they classified as honored guests?
🤔
Economy is strong. Wages are up. Unemployment is low. Stock Market is high. Interest rates are falling.
Unexpected?
*DRINK* ;)
I lost my job in November as a full time IT Project Manager. And now, with all my experience, and hundreds of PM jobs being posted, I can’t get a sniff despite working for a major IT services organization.
Government and low paying service sector jobs. Garbage stats.
Audit and investgate their statistics — as soon as they’ll let you do it properly.
So about 25% of those jobs were government jobs. I wonder how many jobs the US government added in 2023? Given the fact that most government jobs pay exceeds the equivalent private sector jobs and the retirement pay for them blows away the Social Security pay why wouldn’t people opt to work for it?
October was revised down by 45,000
“US employers add a surprisingly strong 216,000 jobs in a sign of continued economic strength”
AP takes the facts and re-writes them!
WASHINGTON — The nation’s employers added a robust 216,000 jobs last month, the latest sign that the American job market remains resilient even in the face of sharply higher interest rates.
Friday’s report from the Labor Department showed that December’s job gain exceeded the 173,000 that were added in November. The unemployment rate was unchanged at 3.7% — the 23rd straight month that joblessness has remained below 4%.
The latest data reflect an economy and a job market that are decelerating back to pre-pandemic norms. Hiring remains steady, and while employers are posting fewer openings, they are not laying off many workers.
