178,000 is a normalish number. Good. I don’t care that it beat expectations. A 59,000 jobs report wouldn’t have been anything to celebrate.
Exactly. Job creation at the 150-175k level is barely replacing the workers that retire, die, etc. anything less that this level is basically net job losses.
It’s solid, but will it be revised?

Dude...this has repeatedly happened during the current administration
The January job numbers looked great and then they got completely stomped on

I feel like we need to fire up the Mad TV "lowered expectations" jingle.
And if you haven't been burned by this before you might as well wait until the "revised" numbers come out at this point
Someone posted before you. You are slipping, you sad sack bitch

I follow him as he tends to be overall pretty accurate
Eric does little more than regurgitate news from other sources, he's an aggregator — primarily of MSM sources that most on this board distrust. He produces practically zero original content, and if traditional MSM outlets somehow cut him off he would be nothing. You're following a mocking bird, nothing more, nothing less.

This is a politician specialty.
Jobs were revised down by 400,000 for all of 2025 in February 2026: Starting at 584,000 ending at about 181,000. Ending at about 15,000 per month which is abysmally bad and insane that there was such a massive swing in the revising process.

This month seems great and the number alone would eclipse all of 2025, but we unfortunately have to wait to see if it holds, because they were only off a mere 222.65% for all of last year.

This will get revised down to negative within a year like it's always done. Adp numbers are more accurate.

I don’t disagree with you at all

I just like to point out the reality occasionally. He is a board favorite, yet 99% of his posts are direct copy/paste from sources that would get flamed by posters here if you posted the same story from the original source he ripped off. Without him as a filter the "reports" would certainly be labeled "fake news" or whatever the favorite term is now. It is laughable.

IMO he’s a spin doctor, but then again that’s often true of “other sources” to begin with.
Almost everything I’ve seen him post has a major framing or context issue with partisan motivation.
The Hyundai thing from yesterday was seriously one of the most ridiculous ones I’ve seen.
I just think people should be better at identifying objective reporting vs sensationalized propaganda, and that goes for both sides.

Exactly. Adding the line "experts in shambles" sounds like a post by the retards on here that think all of this is a my team vs your team sports competition

Honestly this forum would be a much better place if they just banned everyone that spammed the board with his stupid tweets

I am so surprised Slackster didn’t start this thread.

If deportations are as good as they have been saying, the job numbers are probably much better in actuality then the numbers reflect.
This this and this. These people had jobs, and a large portion SS# so the labor stats were being captured by BLS.
If a couple of million have gone home, and subtracted from the jobs numbers, and the jobs numbers are still growing, its a lot better than the top line shows.
Its reflected in the fact that real wage growth grew under Trumps 1st year, and again last month (although the doomsayers say it "softened"). Compare that to 25 consecutive months of declines under biden.
