Description

This week, I’ve got 3 major financial headlines for you…

Last week, the stock market eked out a small gain, despite a rough start Monday and shaky finish Friday… what’s behind the market volatility?
Next, Congress repeated their temporary budget solution with the debt ceiling - now we have a temporary reprieve on both until December 3rd… then what?
Third, the biggest bust last week was the September Employment report released Friday. Economists expected 500,000 jobs would be added, but we saw far less. What happened?

… after that, we will take a deep dive into the employment and labor numbers to take a look at what’s really happening behind just the headline unemployment rate and job creation numbers. What are some of the varying demographic impacts, and what are the longer-term implications.
