So Much For Hunches

The jobs number came in under again the estimate again. Stock futures are coming off a little and middle of the curve is seeing rates drop.

The logic behind last nights post where I took the over wasn't bad ( I don't think it was anyway).

This means we still have a weird jobless recovery. The drop in the rate to 5.2% probably means the participation rate fell, not great.

Kudlow is trying to spin this but 150,000 time and again is historically weak.

He sure was trying to spin it, but we didn't expect anything less from him. :-)
