TRANSPORTATION
SECTOR APPEARS TO BE CARRYING ITS OWN
|
April 8, 2013 - By Staff Writer |
The
transportation sector appears to be
carrying its own, and even though we are
seeing fluctuation in the DOW
transportation index, we think it will
maintain gradual growth.
Our
economy should also continue with its
slow recovery, however, we do need to keep and eye on
job creation, only 88,000 Jobs in March
were created compared to 268,000 the
previous month, and even though the
unemployment rate came down to 7.6%,
that seems to be as a direct result of
500,000 of the unemployed actually giving
up and dropping out of the job market,
certainly not good news!
We also have to be concern with the
economic situation in Europe, if it does
not stabilizes, we can see a reversal of
our recovery due to a trickle down
effect.
