It's the metric that attempts to show the effectiveness of the person holding the office of POTUS, and his/her comparisons to past administrations.

When Obama was president, it was Obama's Economy. Now it's Trump's Economy.

What jobs? I agree investment is up and that creates jobs, but what has Trump done? Granted he's hired a new cabinet and bureaucracy but on the whole he's reduced bloat. And we should only be looking at wealth-generating jobs, not wealth-consuming ones.

It's obvious that the business sector has renewed optimism for the future, but that can evaporate if nothing happens on the tax reform front fairly soon.

To bad the weather made March even worse. Who knows, without the bad weather the numbers might have hit expectations. Yet the U3 rate still fell 4.5% from 4.7%.

BTW, there are two U's in Tuukka Rask. :grin:

98,000 isn't good. I did hear that unemployment numbers were nevertheless down. I have not looked it up, but I bet they are using U-3 numbers.

The larger numbers in Jan and Feb were construction jobs due to unseasonably warm temps.

The job market is improving and the liberals are unhappy about it.

The business sector is more optimistic now than they were a year ago and the liberals are unhappy about that.

The general public is feeling more optimistic about the direction our economy is heading now and the liberals are unhappy about that.
