“Davidson” submits:
The latest Institute of Supply Management Purchasing Manager Report(PMI) was reported this morning reflecting Jan 2010 survey period with the PMI Index at 58.4%(higher than 41.2% is correlated to an expanding economy). In line with recent positive 4Q of GDP report of 5.7% and the Conference Board Help Wanted Online expansion of 382,000, the ISM Employment Index was 53.2%(higher than 49.7% is correlated to expanding employment). I have provided the PMI Index and the ISM Employment Index below. The link to the press release :
Employment is the foundation of continuing economic improvement. The ISM Employment Index first indicated net employment growth in Sept 2009.
