Hmm. The estimate was for 100,000 jobs. No, the estimate was not 100000. 94000 beat the estimates.

"Heads up: Data show 94,000 jobs added in November" Hmm. The estimate was for 100,000 jobs. No. 70000 jobs was the estimate. "The Labor Department said Friday that nonfarm payrolls grew by 94,000 in November. Economists had expected a gain of 70,000." forbes.com Don't 160,000 jobs need to be added each month just to keep up with the new jobseekers coming into the market? 150,000 are needed. I didn't say the economy is booming. Its just not as bad as the cassandras would have it. It may get there but its not there yet IMO.
