Between Omicron (crazy transmissible! but much milder!) and this jobs report (yucky jobs growth! fantastically low unemployment!) it really is a wild time for takemongers in the pick-your-own-narrative market. Be safe out there.

The establishment and household surveys keep diverging because everyone is making it big on substack.

Next month is the annual revision of the establishment benchmarks, and I'll be interested to see what happens there.
I think it is genuinely possible that we've seen a boom in self-employment and new small firms.

It's #JobsReport day so time to update our jobs tracker.
The topline:
34m jobs = 16 yrs Clinton Obama
6.2m jobs = 11 months Biden
2m jobs = 16 years 2 Bushes Trump
Already 3 times as many Biden jobs as last 3 GOP Presidents, COMBINED. 1/
