How am I contradicting myself? It's the worst number on record since 1949, i.e. ex post. I do not know if it's the worst number that we will be seeing in this downturn, ex ante. My opinion is that the labor mkt hasn't hit the bottom yet, as there's a whole number of leading indicators in the NFP report that are suggesting that employment contraction hasn't actually slowed.Quote from Roman Candle:
Your contradicting yourself, you said -741 was the worst.
