No, they are not good. They are not even enough to keep up with population growth. Still, the dow futures jumped up 125 points on the news.

Not enough to keep up with population growth true, but they are very good. May / June revised to + 56K as well. Things could be worse, of course they could be better.

Employment has stabalized and will remain this way until given a reason to hire. Stabalization is better than collapsing, and in todays economy, stabalization is good.

I'm pretty sure there were more than 200,000 college graduates this year.

I shall add my prediction: stocks up today. Uncertain outlook for next week.

Dow's down 50 now. It just did a 150 flip

What prize do I win? Seems like my prediction is going to be right the way things are going today.
