That shows consistent upwards revisions. I.e., higher job growth, not lower.

Pre-revision, blue line, post revision, black line.

Todays numbers say 19,000 in manufacturing

“Manufacturing also trended up, adding 19,000 jobs, but lagged behind the 2022 monthly average of 33,000 jobs.”

The Uniparty is importing a massive amount of people right now. Those folks shop at Walmart, etc. That’s got to be helping the economy.

Bump it up so Biden can lie (again) during the State Of The Union speech, revise down later.

Well we know it can’t be right.

All those temp Christmas jobs that were vaporized in the
beginning of January, couldn’t have allowed this figure
to be accurate.

That would probably require 750,000 total jobs to support
this figure.

Smells like six day old something or other...

That report you cite was ADP December 2022 results

The BLS report is for Jan. 2023

Apples. Oranges.

Yeah...they didn’t correct last spring’s report until a few weeks ago. And they were off by a million then.

This is so fake it is laughable.

I forgot Venmo. Each $600 plus transaction is now a “job.”

60 days notice rules. The vast majority of the tech employees involved in the 2023 layoffs are still on payroll and are slated to be terminated during March.

It could be months before you see the tech job cuts reflected in the job reports.

here’s the truth. Wesbury is a conservative economist.

you might not like what he says. But he’s a conservative economist. The best hope now is that the economy plunges into the toilet during 2024. It doesn’t look like a downturn is happening this year.

Complete nonsense. It was FAR lower in the Great Depression, and probably lower during the Great Recession.
