When you're looking for people or a place to work, I'm the first call you need to make.

 

Jobless claims fell to there lowest level in four months this week. GDP for the 3rd quarter is a robust & healthy 3% and the Fed is already talking about another interest rate cut.

It doesn't take much vision to see what's ahead. Or at least what might be ahead...we've still got an election to contend with. I'm only guessing but I'm betting on an aftermath of angst, anger and aggravation.
