Not a bad week.

Jobless Claims held steady at "too high" but better than we've seen.  Prior was revised up to 758. Upward revisions have become pretty regular.  Nothing I would consider huge,  but consistent.

Construction spending moderated a bit but remains positive.

Redbook moved into solid territory for the week.

Services and Manufacturing remain in Solidly positive territory with ISM Mfg remaining at a recovery level of 59.3

Employment Situation was very good for October @ a net gain of 638K.  Of interest, Private Sector was up 906K. U3 dropped below 7,  participation rate is up a few tics and hourly earnings continue to climb. A very bullish report... as if anything could cause the equity market to go up after the crazee week we had.

A solid C+ for the week.  Suck factor ermains at 6.5 with the jobless claims nearly twice accceptable.
