Quoting Gofer Pips
Due to people giving up hope and dropping out of looking for a job. They are not counted
In fact, those who have not been actively looking for work in the last 4 weeks are not counted as unemployed.

I'm confused about the 7.8% UR...?

How is the unemployment rate significantly better but employment figures did not change? How does that work?
Barnum & Bailey the circus folks I think said...

There is a sucker born every moment or as George Walker Bush once said at a National Press Conference

"Fool Me Once, Shame on You"

Fool Me Twice .... Duh Duh Duh

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/There&#...n_every_minute

When Barnum's biographer tried to track down when Barnum had uttered this phrase, all of Barnum's friends and acquaintances told him it was out of character. Barnum's credo was more along the lines of "there's a customer born every minute" — he wanted to find ways to draw new customers in all the time because competition was fierce and people could become bored easily.[citation needed]

Some sources claim the quote is most likely from famous con-man Joseph ("Paper Collar Joe") Bessimer,[1] and other sources say it was actually uttered by David Hannum, spoken in reference to Barnum's part in the Cardiff Giant hoax. Hannum, who was exhibiting the "original" giant and had unsuccessfully sued Barnum for exhibiting a copy and claiming it was the original, was referring to the crowds continuing to pay to see Barnum's exhibit even after both it and the original had been proven to be fakes.

In turn, Barnum's fellow circus owner and arch-rival Adam Forepaugh attributed the quote to Barnum in a newspaper interview in an attempt to discredit him. However, Barnum never denied making the quote. It is said that he thanked Forepaugh for the free publicity he had given him.[citation needed]

Another source credits late 1860s Chicago "bounty broker, saloon and gambling-house keeper, eminent politician, and dispenser of cheating privileges..." Michael Cassius McDonald as the originator of the aphorism. According to the book Gem of the Prairie: Chicago Underworld (1940) by Herbert Asbury, when McDonald was equipping his gambling house known as The Store (at Clark and Monroe Streets in Chicago) his partner Harry Lawrence expressed concern over the large number of roulette wheels and faro tables being installed and their ability to get enough players to play the games. McDonald then allegedly said, "Don't worry about that, there's a sucker born every minute."[citation needed]

The phrase is the title of the opening song in the Broadway musical Barnum, about P.T. Barnum's life.

I'm no conspiracy theorist but it does seem a little fishy that we somehow (out of nowhere) got the best unemployment rate in 4 years all of a sudden 1 month before Presidential elections.

Maybe I'm reading into this a little more than I should, but just seems odd.

That is swing trading. Position trading is risking 500 pips for 2000 pips gain.

PipTrapper what are your thoughts on that 7,8 number? It's surely risk-on but what about relations to QE? May be QE is just too distinct matter for now..?

Man tell me about it, this new Unemployment Rate came out of nowhere! It's not like anything changed as far as new jobs and what not. And I don't think that all of a sudden an additional .4% of everybody looking for work this past year just stopped looking for work all of a sudden in September...

Something's going on here, if I'm not mistaken, not President in history has been re-elected with unemployment above 8%. Well, now Obama is back in the race...

QE is not working as well as they expected, so perhaps the 7.8% rate will make the market believe. It's all about perception lately. Reality has nothing to do with it. The hope is that perception will become reality like it has in the past. Best of luck this time.
