263K jobs lost in September, far more than the 180K economists were expecting, and more than were lost in August. Unemployment rate up to 9.8%.
The U-6 numbers have now hit 17.0%. The actual number of unemployed and underemployed is closer to 20%. States like Michigan continue to race towards 25%. There will be no fast recovery, period.
And 2010 will only be worse.
