It's The Economy Stupid - Jobless Claims & PPI

Good numbers this morning.  Jobless claims headed downward.  That’s some good news.  Let’s hope it’s a trend that continues and not just a seasonal anomally.  PPI was a mixed bag, but the numbers look like they are firming up with prices trending upward.
