Here Is Your Chance To Ask Just What Magic Eight Ball The BLS Pulls Its Data From
Submitted by Tyler Durden on 04/01/2010 10:29 -0500

BLS Bureau of Labor Statistics Charles Biderman

Following tomorrow's NFP announcement, the Bureau of Labor Statistics will entertain a Q&A session with the general public. The BLS will use Cover It Live (which prescreens questions, so don't expect any too "pertinent" questions to be allowed). We hope TrimTabs' Charles Biderman will use this opportunity to discuss some of his rather divergent payroll observations. Furthermore, we ourselves may inquire as to what the reason why the average unemployed's monthly paycheck has now increased to the all time record of just under $1,500 based on a total insured population of just under 11 million, and why if the actual check is where it should be (~$1,000) is there a shadow 40% of the insured work pool (roughly 4 million people) that is not being accounted for?

Yes, I agree, but we've seen that quite often during
the last year. They never seem to work though. -g- -ng-
