This morning I posted Jobs Rise Less than Expected 160K; Employed -316K, Fulltime Employment -196K.
The number in question is Fulltime Employment at -196,000. Zerohedge arrived at -253,000.
Attempting to sort things out between the table I used and the one ZeroHedge used, I noted the numbers don’t add up.
There is a discrepancy in part-time employment numbers this month of 1,366,000 between two different tables.
With that introduction, let’s dive into Household Table A as compared to Household Table A9.
Table A9
Employment dropped by 316,000. That’s the number I used in my report. It matches the number in Table A.
