The market isn’t open.

Futures are up, though. It’ll probably be a good open.

9.7% is what it was last month. So the hole hasn’t gotten any deeper. It may not seem like something to celebrate, but you take what you can get.

Actual job losses last month, 35000, were lower than expected. But that’s largely because companies have already stripped themselves significantly; even an arterial wound eventually slows it’s spurting and gushing to a slow seepage as blood volume decreases.
