I can't recall the last time the ADP report successfully predicted the official report.

which one do you believe, Lou?

Today‟s estimate, if reinforced by a comparable reading on employment from the Bureau of Labor Statistics tomorrow, likely will ease concerns that the economy is heading into a downturn.”

Combined with the reports of the rate cuts and BOE QE - well, that's some containment.

This is certainly reassuring news. So happy that everything is fixed. I'm sure this will be reflected in my bank account soon. Laughing out loud

It won't likely mesh with the Non-Farm numbers this month. Based on Gallup data, there was a massive move from part-time to full-time workers in the second half of June. That would be AFTER the polling week that the BLS uses.

So, the BLS non-farm will probably be much weaker, (+90k or so) ... but based on the Gallup data in mid-month coupled with standard seasonal adjustment factors, the U3 could drop as much as 2/10th to 8.0.

160K were service sector jobs. McJobs will save us!

Funny, I was excited that we are basically at zero for job growth/population.

Lou, yes - I can't either.

Hmmm ... three posts already today and weekly claims is just coming up. Sorry about all the Pigged

well,, I would say this throws a dose of cold water on the recession flame. Conjure may need to back his clock up, again.

Meh, A bunch of service sector summer jobs are not going to save us...honest. Delay the inevitable maybe.
