Using the current UE calculation Trump would see a rise in UE as people came back into an improved labor market.

Trump should say that UE numbers are BS and use the more astute and genuine U6 figure which UE is 9.3%.

U6 will go down only as REAL UE including LONG TERM UE is addressed.

Pressure on wages is being artificially stoked by the minimum wage $15 laws. These laws are all politics, they are causing job losses, and hastening robotics replacing workers.

My problem is I prefer to wait til we hit new highs so I can see for sure we got a decisive move, but lately this has been followed by a sell off w/ more highs later.

OK, so it means while others double their money in 3 months I have to wait 6 months.
