Making America Great Again . . . Right On Track!
One of the most critical indicators of economic health is racing in the right direction and has the best report in 45 years. You would think the media would be screaming the good news from the rooftops, but once again anything that even remotely looks America is getting ‘great again’ might have something to Trump, and we can’t have that!
According to hannity.com:
Jobless claims in early April dropped by over 9,000 applications to just over 230,000; reaching levels not seen in the United States since the mid 1970s.
The new data shows America’s unemployment claims are at a 45-year low as the labor market continues to roar to life under President Trump and the Republican-controlled Congress.
According to Market Watch, the strong report shows companies across the country complaining about a “shortage of labor” as more and more Americans go back to work.
“Layoffs are near a 45-year low and show no sign of rising. Companies increasingly complain about a shortage of skilled labor with the unemployment rate at a 17-year low of 4.1%, making it harder for them to fill a record number of job openings,” writes Market Watch.
“With labor so hard to find, the bar for letting people go is very high, so layoffs will remain at close to their current levels for some time yet,” said a chief economist.
