I'd be curious as to what the U6 data is. Also not sure I can trust that data under the demons running this administration.
Remember that the number represents new claims only. So for one week there were not so many layoffs/firings - doesn't mean people found jobs.
Are you talking about the U-3 numbers or the U-6 numbers?
yeah its kinda moot now. Given how many folks lost their job due to having the wrong numbers.
