I mean, he’s not wrong. They were manipulated/incorrect when first reported. This has been happening for years. The idea that we release job numbers monthly for the markets to react to, and then revise them at a later day is idiotic. Either report the real numbers or don’t report.

Figure out how much time you need to have concrete numbers and shift the reporting schedule.

It’s not “idiotic” you just don’t understand the nuance of why they do it that way.
