Title: July Jobs Report Post by: Joe Biden 2020 on July 27, 2012, 12:41:31 AM We are 1 week from the release of the July 2012 Jobs Report? What do you think it will show? Will it underperform like the past several months, or will it be a bright spot? Will it start changing the shape of the race since it will come 3 months 3 days before Election Day?
Title: Re: July Jobs Report Post by: Tender Branson on July 29, 2012, 07:39:48 AM +171.000 jobs this time I guess (182.000 private, -11.000 government).
Rate = 8.1% (-0.1) Title: Re: July Jobs Report Post by: True Federalist (진정한 연방 주의자) on July 31, 2012, 10:15:11 PM While U3 might tick downward, U4 would either hold steady or even tick upward with that sort of jobs number.

Title: Re: July Jobs Report Post by: greenforest32 on August 03, 2012, 07:54:14 PM July 2012 numbers released today: http://bls.gov/news.release/empsit.nr0.htm
+163,000 jobs June 2012 revised down from +80,000 to +64,000 May 2012 revised up from +77,000 to +87,000 U-3 unemployment rate +0.1 (rises to 8.3% from 8.2% in June 2012) U-6 unemployment rate +0.1 (rises to 15.0% from 14.9% in June 2012) Labor force participation rate -0.1 (falls to 63.7% from 63.8% in June 2012) Title: Re: July Jobs Report Post by: They put it to a vote and they just kept lying on August 04, 2012, 08:16:58 PM Credit is due for the fact that nearly 100,000 new jobs were created, but the unemployment rate is still climbing, so that's not good.
