Markets surging on positive jobs numbers.... stocks at 4-year highs


Perfect economic news heading into Obama's speech tonight.



“There’s no ambiguity about the rally today—every economic data point we got was positive and the market liked Draghi’s comments,” said Brian Gendreau, market strategist at Cetera Financial Group. “We don’t know if this new program is going to succeed, but the ECB seems to be squarely in the camp of taking positive action.”


As I type this, the Dow is up 240 points to a level not seen since before the economic crash of September 2008.


Coming off of Clinton's speech, this just buttresses all the claims.

201,000 private sector jobs created in August according to ADP.... which means that tomorrow's government-released numbers will probably be in the plus six digits as well.
