As we warned for quite some time
1) job market data is BULL SHIT
2) Jerome Powell says all is fine. Also bullshit.
The US labor market is showing significant signs of deterioration, with several key indicators pointing to a weakening employment landscape:
job postings have plummeted 38% compared to last year, reaching their lowest point since August 2020
total job postings have experienced a continuous decline over 3 years, with a 49% drop from the February 2022 peak
Current job vacancies are now 5% lower than pre-pandemic levels - yikes.
NAME CHANGE NEEDED
The Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) needs to change their name to Bureau of BS
