Jobs numbers “implode” as job openings plunge 800,000 on the month.

Job openings “implode” by 800,000 on the month, as the the Fed rate hikes finally hit. Even those numbers are smoke and mirrors with 5 million Americans out of the workforce post-Covid. Including those would put us at 6.5% to 7% unemployment — right where we were at the start of the 2008 crisis. FX Hedge
