"I think the fact that we came in under 3 million suggests that the turning on the economy is beginning and it’s beginning to show up with the data."
Turning happens with new jobs not with fewer lost ones, dumbbrain.
There are fewer losses this week because for several weeks now, the other ones were shed. So there are fewer left to lose.
The good news is that at least some jobs remain. In meat packing plants, for instance.
