Another good month as far as the BLS unemployment figure goes. The jobless rate dropped to 8.3% for January with an increase of 243,000 in NFP. The number generally beat expectations.

Sad to say it, but I think it will be going back up. I saw some more going out of business and "closing" signs this morning.

Good news, indeed. Hopefully it will stay this way and continue to improve.

Natural ups and downs as most other Western economies experience, it's been tough recently and it will probably be a little bumpy and then eventually it will be better again.
