We got better employment news out of the US this morning with virtually every sector adding jobs. The unemployment rate was at 8.5% for Dec. There was virtually no change in average hourly earnings month over month and year over year. What does all this data really mean? I suspect the “good” employment news will excite politicians to come on TV and tell us how much better off we are now compared to a few months ago. The reality is that 8.5% unemployment is still very high and the economic growth have been less than stellar. Everyone continues to keep a close eye on the European situation and other potential bad economic developments out of China.
