29. I've been putting JOLTS in the Economy group for about a year now, I guess.

I've been treating it as a scheduled press release that doesn't affect things too much, unlike the payroll employment report, which always makes the evening TV news.

It hadn't crossed my mind to put it in LBN. BLS reports are written in a style that doesn't cause too much excitement.

The last two months of JOLTS, though, have caught people's attention. I don't think it's the usual situation that the WaPo puts out an article about JOLTS within a matter of minutes.

JOLTS is definitely LBN this month and the previous month. Next month's will be watched too.

And good morning.
