    U.S. Private Sector Added 67,000 Jobs in November

    ...which is about 50% of what we need just to stay even with the new graduates et al coming into the labor market.

    What a difference a day makes!

    U.S. Added 266,000 Jobs in November; Unemployment at 3.5%

    The Labor Department’s report was much stronger than last month, helped in part by the end of a General Motors strike.

    Got to watch the fake news on those early reports.

    The first report came from the WSJ, the one from today came from the NYT---as for fake news---I don't watch Fox.

    A significant part of the apparent divergence is based on different measures.
