The jobs data shows that 3,000 non-farm workers were hired in October bringing the unemployment rate DOWN to 7.9% (unadjusted) while the state is at 8.8% (unadjusted.) This is the lowest unemployment rate since December 2008. So, although this isn't the huge knight in shining armor type of statistics everyone wants or hopes for...it's a least a little bit of good news.
Hopefully, the "bottom" is here or the economy is stabilizing. I will take either at this point!
