Re the employment numbers, quoting Dismal, "Although employment data were below consensus in June, they do indicate that the labor market still has momentum and that wage pressures are still an issue. Therefore, this report increases the likelihood of another Fed hike in August." <http://www.dismal.com/economy/releases/dyn_release.asp?r=usa_employ> Dismal's interpretation is certainly different from those quoted in Bloomberg and elsewhere on WS this morning.
