These numbers are indeed very encouraging.

yeah I heard the jobs report was good- at first I thought this am we must have had a bad number, because I was expecting a high open on the naz after Cisco. But this morning the naz was down... turns out one of the other internet companies disappointed though, it had nothing to do with jobs. Anyway yes a good jobs number, but is this seasonal hiring do you know? That is my only concern. Or, have they figured out a way to seasonally adjust it. I was posting on the other thread that my observation is, that if you have a job whether contractor or not out here in CA, you are not fearing losing it anymore. It doesn't mean companies are hiring expensive professional workers, but there definitely is more stability for those employed. Thats pretty good because we have the worst unemployment in the country here. What are the expectations for tomorrow, 150K jobs added was what Snow was saying but he may not mean this month. It would mean more to me to hear job growth from Challenger Gray and Christmas though. They are unbiased.
