Job market beats expectations with 228,000 payroll growth
2 Hours Ago | 01:09
The U.S. economy created 228,000 jobs in November while the unemployment rate held steady at 4.1 percent, the Labor Department reported Friday.
Economists surveyed by Reuters had expected nonfarm payrolls to grow by 200,000.
A more encompassing measure of joblessness that includes discouraged workers and those holding part-time positions for economic reasons moved up one-tenth of a point to 8 percent. The ranks of those not in the labor force edged higher by 35,000 to 95.4 million.
Overall a great showing.

The biggest November job gains came in professional and business services [46,000], manufacturing [31,000] and health care [30,000]. In total, goods-producing occupations rose by 62,000. Construction saw a gain of 24,000, almost all of which were specialty trade contracts, a profession that has added 132,000 jobs over the past year.
Heading into the holiday season, retail jobs also grew by 18,7000.
Markets reacted positively to the news, with major stock indexes opening higher.

GE cuts 12K jobs as demand for coal fired generators slips
Renewables, skew the market.
quote:
In one of the most visible moves, the company said on Thursday that it would cut 12,000 jobs in its power division, reducing the size of the unit’s work force by 18 percent.
The announcement is an acknowledgment that the company has not been properly positioned for where the energy market is headed. Oil and natural gas markets are dealing with a glut of supply and companies like General Electric have been forced to cut prices on their services. The long-term demand for renewable energy is growing globally, even as the American political climate damps its short-term prospects. And G.E. faces a raft of competition from international rivals in all those areas.

G.E. just shut down a local plant. I'll look here in a few to see how many jobs.
Etd:
Produced light bulbs.

Gauer said 36 employees will remain following final production for various lengths of time to clean, disconnect equipment, and prepare the plant for possible future use.

So explain why Trump currently sports a 32% job approval rating. Clearly America does not associate a decent economy with any action the president has taken.

I don't dissagre, but it's a smaller town in rural illinois that does make a big impact.

And this is against the head winds of the globalists who want the USA humbled and on bended knee! They want a one world system with themselves at the helm of it!
