MSNBC: Unemployment Rate Falls to the Lowest in a Decade

‘211,000 jobs were added in the month’

EXCERPT:

EISEN: "This is a strong read on our nation’s jobs market. 211,000 jobs were added in the month. That was much better than economists were looking for. They expected a number around 188,000. So, that looked good. The unemployment rate looks even better, ticking down to 4.4 percent. And that is now a new low that goes back to 2007. Lowest level since before the financial crisis and recession. 4.4 percent unemployment rate., better than the 4.5 percent registered."
