Прав си за Клинтън, но тоя поне е "оптимист"
А иначе не е зле
February saw stronger payroll growth than expected. Nonfarm payroll
employment climbed by 262K in February following a downwardly revised gain of
132k in January (prev 146k). It was the strongest payroll gain in four months
and above expectations for a 218k gain, but only slightly above whisper numbers
around 250k. Treasuries are higher following the news, mostly likely on the
flat reading on earnings and the up tick in the unemployment rate. The
unemployment rate ticked up to 5.4% from 5.2% while the workweek was steady at
33.7 hrs.
[HIGHLIGHTS:]
Nonfarm Payrolls 262k vs. 132k (prev 146k, est 218k)
Unemployment Rate 5.4% vs. 5.2%
Avg Hrly Earnings +0.0% vs. +0.3% (prev +0.2%)
Work Week 33.7h vs. 33.7h
Goods producing employment rose by 55k versus expectations for a rise of
about half that. It fell by 17k in January. There was a 20k rise in
manufacturing jobs after a 20k loss in January. Construction employment jumped
by 30k after a flat reading in January.
On the service side, payrolls expanded by 207k following a 149k gain in
January. This was better than expected. 174k of those new service sector jobs
came in the private sector. Retail jobs jumped by 30k while professional and
business service jobs were up 81k, following a 24k gain in January. Government
payrolls expanded by 33K following a 22k rise in January.
Average hourly earnings were steady at $15.90 in February. From a year ago
wages were up 2.5%, down from the 2.7% rise noted in January.
The unemployment rate posted at 5.4%, up 0.2 pp from January. This is in
line with its average in the second half of last year. The labor force grew by
153k last month while the number of unemployed rose by 251k. This is curious
given the drop in continuing claims. The participation rate was steady at
65.8%.
Aside from the unemployment rate the report was very healthy. There were
strong gains in several key categories within the service sector including a 30k
rise in temporary help. The February increase in non-farm payrolls was well
above the 12-month average rise of 184k, while wage pressures seem to be few.
The steady reading on the workweek also leaves it in its recent range of 33.6 to
33.8 hrs.
Some Fed officials have cited nonfarm estimates of 150k to 200k per month in
2005. While the February figure was above that, the January/February average
puts it in the range at 197k. Overall there is nothing in the data to prompt
the Fed to change course though it should minimize calls for a pause in the
tightening cycle. Fed fund futures are little changed following the release,
pricing in full odds of another 25 bps hike at the March 22 meeting
with further 25 bps hikes at the May and June meetings bringing the funds rate
to 3.25% by the end of the first half of the year. --
КОКО, данните са "горе-долу"добри сравнени с плачевните данни от Европа, иначе са си гола вода. Добри бяха данните по времето на Клинтън, когато за 8 години се създадоха 26 милиона работни места. Припомням ти, че сегашният президент едва днес излиза на плюс, след повече от 4 години. До края на мандата ще е максимум на плюс 5-6 милиона, което е плачевно.
Но пък като погледна Германия с 12% безработица, и Франция с 10%, не знам какво да мисля. Ако не бяха дефицитите Е/$ щеше да е 1:1
In the state of nature profit is the measure of right.
