U.S. employment rebounded last month on robust public education and other service-sector hiring, and August's decline was revised to a gain, signaling resilience in the labor market and reining in hopes for further aggressive easing by the Federal Reserve. Nonfarm payrolls rose 110,000 in September, and August was revised to an 89,000 rise from a previous estimate of a 4,000 decline.

kenny dont drown in whisky to forget the reality: booming economy, NOT recession NOT derpession like demoRATS been thinking. Stocks Jump Following Jobs Report By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS Published: October 5, 2007 Filed at 3:19 p.m. ET NEW YORK (AP) -- Stocks jumped sharply and bond prices tumbled Friday after the government reported strong September job growth and revised August's weak data upward, cooling fears of a recession. The Dow Jones industrials rose more than 130 points and along with the Standard & Poor's 500 index broke into record territory. The Labor Department's report that employers added 110,000 jobs in September -- essentially what analysts had expected -- reassured Wall Street that the job market wasn't pulling back sharply as was feared a month ago. Though the data appeared to lessen the likelihood of an interest rate cut when the Federal Reserve meets Oct. 30-31, investors were relieved that the economy doesn't appear headed for a precipitous slowdown. Strength this year in the job market amid a housing downturn and tighter credit conditions has been an important pillar for the economy. With consumer spending accounting for about two-thirds of U.S. economic activity, investors are eager for workers to continue to collect their paychecks. Much of Wall Street's collective exhale Friday owed to a revision in August payrolls, which were updated to show a gain of 89,000 jobs compared with an earlier estimate of loss of 4,000 jobs. The release of the August figure -- when economists had predicted a rise -- sent the Dow down nearly 250 points in a single session and, market watchers say, played a role in the Fed's decision to cut its key interest rate by a larger-than-expected half-percentage point last month.
