They'll be pissed today, but creaming their panties when it's dialed down to 100,000.

But pretty neutral when you consider that we need to create 130-150k jobs a month just to replace those workers that leave the workforce via retirement, death, etc.

We need to create jobs in order to replace the jobs that already exist? Are you retarded?

I guess I’m not understanding this. If 130k people retire and 130k people take their place, the jobs report would show 0 jobs created.

Any good news is generally good but there was a time that a minimum of 250K (20 years ago) was considered more or less a break even point

115K jobs in a month is really nothing to gloat about

The expectations being low doesn't make it any more impressive

Look at how many jobs were being created per month in 2023 and 2024

Lower immigration and an aging population meant the economy needed to create between zero and 50,000 jobs per month to keep up with growth in the working-age population, economists estimated.

Considering how many federal jobs and IT jobs that have been eliminated coupled with the sky screaming that the economy is tanking, this is a positive sign. Like it or not industry is being onshored, the market is reaching new highs, wages are going up, and inflation at 3% are all impressive results.

Especially when you consider the damage that Covid did and the 4 years of destruction from the previous administration.
