| Interesting economic question... |
|
Nouriel Roubini had this on his Facebook, "..employment fell 330K last month & labor force participation rate at 25yr low. How does that square with 150K jobs gain?"
I don't have the answer to that question.
Does anyone else?

| 1. The two surveys are completely different. It could be statistical noise. |
|
One surveys businesses, and one surveys households.

| 3. That's crap. There are two different surveys. The household survey is probably lagging. |
|
This has happened a lot in the past.
