The industries that experienced the biggest year-over-year increases in hiring in November were financial services and insurance (26.8% higher); oil and energy (25.4% higher); and manufacturing and industrial (25.0% higher).

Had no doubt things would start looking up. But of course all we see on the primary news channels and the Internet is all the "bad" things that are going on. God forbid anyone give the dude any credit

Oh please. FoxNews will and we all know it.
I voted Trump, but at least I'm not blind to think FoxNews isn't a Republican sunshine pumping news channel.
Just as MSNBC pumps up the democrats.

Because as distasteful of a man he really is, he is actually backing up what he said he would do on the campaign trail.

He just isn't your average politician, which is why he got elected.

People will hate him for succeeding more than love him for failing.

Fox News was implied. I'm talking about pretty much every other news outlet - sorry I should have clarified.

CNBC is obviously enjoying the market ride, however, not sure they give Trump much credit. They do focus on the tax cuts quite a bit.

Liberals will find a way for this to be a bad thing and they’ll cry and complain about how bad this is for the country. Trump could cure cancer and they would still complain about him finding a cure

We need to give Obama credit. If he hadn't kept the 2016 number low, the delta wouldn't be as high.

The hilarious thing is the obama sycophants will talk until they're blue in the face crediting obama with the current econ boom and exonerating him from the previous sluggishness.

Trump would actually have a lot more credibility if he'd stay his arse off of Twitter. He sets himself up for most of his criticism by giving MSM fuel for their liberal fire.

Agreed. Wish he'd tweet less OR tweet more about actual policy. Could be such a great way to air out obscure gems about legislation but instead he uses it for sophomoric #fakenews stuff far too often.

There's something to be said for him not changing his style, but I think he's missing opportunities to optimize his presence on the platform.

What exactly has he done to spur this growth? Is it because of him or just a coincidence? The only thing that's happened in the financial sector is the delay of the DoL fiduciary rules which wouldn't account for a 26% increase in hires.

In this case, it is mostly perception. The market jumped overnight when he was elected. Consumer confidence is at a 17 year high (I believe).

He has taken measures to position the US as more competitive. Tax reform is a huge part of that, but he has also done things like get us out of the Paris agreement which was just a bad deal for the USA. It's a headline for those that hate him "trump hates the environment", but taking politics out of it, it is better for us to look out for ourselves.

This is what he said he would do, and is doing it. You might not agree with his politics, but if you do, he is trying to live up to his promises. It's giving people confidence.

Job growth was stronger in 2016 than 2017.

quote:

"Employment growth has averaged 174,000 per month thus far this year, compared with an average monthly gain of 187,000 in 2016," the agency's acting Commissioner William J. Wiatrowski said of the report.

Either way the President has far less influence on job growth than people think. Praising/criticizing Trump or Obama for minor differences in hiring is dumb.
