Nov. Chicago PMI accelerates to seven-month high

Nov. 30, 2011, 9:49 a.m. EST

WASHINGTON (MarketWatch) -- The November reading of the Chicago PMI (Purchasing Managers Index) rose to 62.6% from 58.4% in October, which is a seven-month high and the 26th straight month over the 50% level that indicates expansion. Economists for MarketWatch had expected the gauge to stay at 58.4%. Gauges for production, new orders and order backlogs all accelerated. One panelist said, "From observation from our company it feels as if the market is making a comeback."

November private-sector jobs rise 206K: ADP

Nov. 30, 2011, 8:22 a.m. EST

WASHINGTON (MarketWatch) -- Private-sector payrolls increased 206,000 in November -- the largest gain since last December -- led by the service-producing sector and small businesses, according to the ADP employment report released Wednesday. The October level was revised up to 130,000 from a prior estimate of 110,000. Markets look to ADP's report on private-sector payrolls to provide some guidance on the U.S. Labor Department's jobs estimate, which will be released Friday and includes information on both private- and public-sector payrolls. Economists polled by MarketWatch expect the Labor Department to report strengthening employment, with overall nonfarm payrolls up 125,000 in November, compared with 80,000 in October. Analysts also expect the unemployment rate to remain at 9.0%.
