U.S. Payrolls Drop 51,000 Jobs; Jobless Rate Rises

By Shobhana Chandra

Aug. 1 (Bloomberg) -- The U.S. unemployment rate rose to the highest level
in more than four years as employers cut jobs again in July, increasing
the threat of a deeper economic slowdown.



Look at it this way. Of course we are in an economic downturn cycle.
Employers are doing what they need to do in order to stay in business.

If they didn't .... there would be fewer companies around, hiring and
helping to fuel the recovery, when it comes ... and it will.

See? There's always a silver lining.
