Thanks Gene!

Subject: [CANSLIM] Unemployment down, Job losses up?

Could someone please explain to me how unemployment could drop to 6.2% =
while job losses increase by 44,000? Does it have to do with the way job =
losses are reported (type, time lag, those getting previous benefits =
dropping off?) or something else? I'm a bit confused, plus it's Friday =
so my mind is already spinning down to "standby" for the weekend.

Kelly
