These numbers along with inflation just doesn't matter anymore. We will experience heavy recession this year due to the Middle-East war, even if it stopped today. The only thing smart investors are now looking at is when the Fed will begin with QE.

It's coming. The economy will not survive past this year.

If you were working an honest job or even bothered to look at any data that exists you would see that wages are always lagging behind inflation. I won't even try to continue this conversation, because it's pointless. Take care!

As predicted. Are you at least intelligent enough to read a bar chart?

mainstreet leads recession outlook not wallstreet.. you think b/c the market is moving up based off sector rotations that there isn't a recession you're slow... also believing anything that comes out of this regime makes you extra slow. off course the fat cats are eating.

Yeah, the data doesn't agree with your feelings. Keep shorting, eventually you'll catch a few pips if you have the capital to stay on the game long enough

ADP is a private payroll company, dolt, it has nothing to do with with government data. What's your excuse now?
