Mixed reaction on today’s release. Lots of moving parts – uncertainty in the details, despite drop in overall unemployment rate.

    With all due respect, the drop in unemployment numbers are just not believable. Most people are wondering incredulously how those numbers are calculated. No, I don’t believe for a minute that the unemployment numbers have fallen.

    Agreed. To add fuel to the fire…the unemployment rate comes from a different survey than the payroll numbers.
