Wow. Mikael, our guest from Sweden, gave me his friend's CD Monday night. Nice stuff, bro'!THE LATEST UNEMPLOYMENT DATA
The NV trend tapered off below my second-order polynomial trend line just a crack in March (we're officially at 10.4% for March). DETR officials attribute that to people falling off the rolls. Once you've exhausted your unemployment benefits, you no longer "count" -- notwithstanding still being out of a job.Tough times.
