Unfortunately, they chose the wrong way to release from the SPR (an exchange). “…SPR exchanges ultimately raise the real price of oil, whereas emergency drawdowns lower the real price of oil.” www.dallasfed.org/~/media/docu... Ooops….

This. I don’t necessarily agree with even 50-75% of their platforms…but they conveyed a belief and dedication to adhere to the rule of law and democracy, and that is enough for me. Should have been for everyone.

To be honest, I wish he had pardoned fewer people. Force the trials to put the sham allegations and indictments on display. If Comey starts a GoFundMe, I will support the fight to uphold democracy. “…if you can keep it.” NB: Founders used “republic” and “democracy” interchangeably.

Jimmy Kimmel deserves better than this. He’s a class act. Case in point - after my first appearance on his show back in 2018, he very thoughtfully asked whether I was receiving adequate security at that time, as Trump was repeatedly smearing journalists as “the enemy of the people,”

I'm horrified to hear that Charlie Kirk was shot at an event in Utah. Democratic societies will always have political disagreements, but we must never allow America to become a country that confronts those disagreements with violence. Mark and I are praying for Charlie's recovery.

As veterans we hold a special place in this society. People trust us, they listen to us, so we must lead by example; not with anger, but with integrity. Not with partisanship, but with principals. We know what real sacrifices look like.

We did see an uptick in the most recent print of claims (cont. claims week ended 4/19), but it is only 1 point so far and 1 pt does not make a trend. With all the anecdotal reports, wouldn’t be surprising if it becomes the turning point, but have to wait and see.

One addnl note: the survey week for the BLS is the week containing the 12th (this month was Apr 6-12). The other labor market data (chiefly unemp. claims) were fairly benign that week.

The reason I am jumping on this because in my career I have worked with many former BLS employees. If the admin did try to mess with the numbers, then we would have heard about huge mass resignations.

The BLS also revise as they get more survey responses. I didn’t check the response rate for April, but it typically is around 60-75%. They get more between now and the May release (might be closer to 90% by then).

Many economic forecasters have been led astray by changing their BLS (official) forecast based on the ADP release. So much so that it’s a bit of a running joke amongst us.

schimidg.bsky.social @schimidg.bsky.social · 03/05/2025
I hat to pour cold water on this one, but ADP is an estimate of the government release based on their own data. The BLS is based off of statistical surveys. The 90% confidence interval is about +/- 120,000, so in reality that 62,000 may have been the real number.” But so could 280,000.
