Job market numbers jump, more people making more money, so Fed increases the rate to earn more interest.

Imagine that!!

Trump will be pleased but only marginally so. He already hated the Biden Administrations trend of 'reducing' jobs reporting months later.

He'll probably chew some arse wanting expectations vs revised to be less of a percentage swing. Good for him, I voted for this also.

PS - if you are going to revise, it's always better for it to be in your favor, though I noticed the 'revision' numbers were always on page 38 of the NYT where as the 'announced' were on page 1 during the Biden Administration.

Illegals being sent home by the millions, many with ss# thus included in the bls numbers, yet we still have job growth of 100K plus a month. Jives with the fact real wage growth continues, companies having to pay more to Americans.

Housing market spiked when 20 million came in and EUREKA is declining as millions go home.

Food stamp usage declining as work requirements kick in, which would require illegals to register so usage is declining.

This economy is humming and improving every month.

And all this nonsense about fed and interest rates is nonsense. Is a 25 point change in fed rate gonna change your life or real wage growth and job opportunities?

Focus on the big stuff not what the msm tells you to.

What’s interesting is that during a Dem/Marxist regime…. Numbers are always revised DOWN.

During a Republican administration… Numbers are always revised UP.

It’s a clear indication of the media working hard to prop up their Marxist overlords

Numbers also don’t fully explain everything going on right now either. Trump has secured trillions in deals which will lead to jobs. Trump slashed jobs the first year from the public sector that Biden created. You can look at month to month job numbers but overall the deals will pay off long term.
