Tuesday: Producer Price Index, Industrial Production,
Wednesday: Housing Starts and Building Permits, Consumer Price Index
Thursday: Weekly initial jobless claims,
Friday: Leading Indicators
Larson Notes: I guess the good news is that fewer people went on the unemployment line. First time joblessness was at 502,000 and it takes fewer than ~425,000 job losses to start to gain. With the official jobless rate at 10.2 but the real jobless rate at 17.5 or higher we need to keep out collective heads on. The last time we saw job gains was December of 2007. Two years is a long time to be shedding jobs.
As reported a week ago with the economy growing at 3.5% last quarter there is hope of better things to come, if only there are people out there to buy things.
This week we have a full, and I mean full week of reports coming out. I plan on sitting tight and letting it play out while I stick to my marketing and game plan. I see good things coming but it will take a while for the dust to settle. I would look for still low business inventories, better industrial production good housing starts and excellent leading indicators.
The focused industries we are looking to add clients in for the month are Advertising Specialties, Trade Show Booth Builder, Sign Shop, a Graphic Design Studio, and Printer both small and mid-sized.
We are still looking for sales persons in all areas except
the Great Plains States.
