3. 1 million is based on what ?- the payroll numbers do not give that

size of a loss.

Granted the monthly payroll numbers are estimates based on the Current Employment Statistics (CES) survey, as we wait for the more complete sample of payroll jobs that is collected through the ES202 data series used for collecting unemployment insurance premiums from companies, but this latter series cannot be used for month to month data as the more complete data takes a number of months to fully process. Besides, each year the EDD recalibrates their statistical estimates based on the CES data by matching the data to the ES202 data. Inany case these are the current published numbers - and the CES data for 2001 has been benchmarked to the ES202 data. For 8/01 to 11/01 the non-seasonally adjusted was 143826 143601 144060 143987, and the seasonally adjusted was 143372 144020 144171 144254. Where is this 1 million drop??? - it should show as a drop of 1000 or more in the above numbers.
