I found it: Futures now +19...August employment data showed a much lower than expected 124,000 non-farm payroll gain and a smaller than expected gain of 0.2% for hourly earnings (with a revised July figure of 0.3% from 0.5%)...both are bullish for stocks - low inflation implications on the earnings data and moderate employment growth that lessens the likelihood of Fed tightening...S&P futures have jumped 20 points and it now looks like a very strong open....to brag for a bit, Briefing.com's forecasts on the Economic Calendar were for 165,000 and 0.2% compared to much higher market consensus numbers.
