Happy to be here.

Thanks for having me.

So the thing that is funny about this jobs report is that people were just kind of happy to get anything and to know that the economy wasn't crumbling before the shutdown, because we really feel like there is probably going to be some contraction that is going to come out during the 36 day shutdown.

There was a lot happening during that time.

So for right now, it kind of feels like for many economists, like September feels like so long ago.

So you're taking this with a grain of salt.

you are pleased to know like the economy was doing sort of okay with the labor market specifically, but you're also looking forward to the December reports and November data, and you're unsure what that is going to say.

But the discussion on the broader measures of

on an underemployment is something I did find interesting because these are people who want a job but are in the labor force or who are working part-time and they're still trying to find a full-time job and it's the worst it's been since the pandemic.

So these are job seekers who are struggling in the job market and they feel that it has been worse since the 2020 pandemic, which was a global phenomenon that was

really shattering for a lot of people's job stability.

So that is something that personally worries me, as well as the losses that we are seeing in transportation, warehousing, manufacturing.

I mean, when you look at those sectors, the first thing that pops to my mind is, well, yeah, we have been seeing a lot of uncertainty when it comes to our supply chains, when it comes to our trade policies.

And now that's starting to impact workers when the intended goals was to revive the said industry.

Yeah, so AI is something that everyone is trying to get in on, and it really is doing a great job propping up the economy.

I know that there were some revisions when it came to California's budget.

The only reason why they were able to stay above budget was thanks to the tech sector that they were able to fund for other social services.

So we wouldn't know where we are without the AI economy right now, but we do know that it is something that is powering us through this.

And if we are not to find stability outside of that when it comes to, you know,

Leveling our trade policies, not changing our economic policies every single day, not sending out tariff checks and so forth.
