Unemployment Rate Dropped to 4.5%, its Lowest Level since May 2007.

By Ben Leubsdorf- Wall Street Journal

Wednesday April 7, 2017

U.S. nonfarm employers added a seasonally adjusted 98,000 jobs in March, well below economists’ expectations for an increase of 175,000. But the unemployment rate dropped to 4.5%, its lowest level since May 2007.

Here are early reactions from economists and analysts to Friday’s report:

“Headline unemployment fell, but perhaps more importantly so did underemployment—from 9.2% in February to 8.9% in March. … This means fewer people are working part-time for economic reasons.” —Megan Greene, John Hancock Asset Management

“Even before the latest drop, unemployment appeared to be low enough already to put upward pressure on wage gains.” —Jim O’Sullivan, High Frequency Economics

and from Fox News

“Healthy gains in employment, real disposable income, and household wealth will continue to fuel consumer spending,” Chris Christopher IHS Markit

Consumer Confidence Nears All-time High set in 1999

On Thursday (April 13,2017) , the University of Michigan released an update on its consumer sentiment gauge, which rose 10% from the same period last year, and notched a 1.1% gain from March to early April as the current economic conditions index hit its highest level since 2000, nearly reaching an all-time high set in 1999. 

BETTER DAYS ARE ON THE WAY

MVP of 2017

NEW PATENT PENDING Water Temperature Probe

Now you'll see:
SPA: 101.4 (°F)

The NEW Heat Siphon ® pool water temperature sensor is now accurate to within 0.01°F - the Player Control displays it to a tenth °F

We developed our new probe in response to customer questions about what the real water, temperature was as they compared our readout to their floating thermometers and digital temperature probes.

We manufactured a titanium probe tip with just 0.030" wall thickness which houses a tiny .095" diameter bead type thermistor with an accuracy of 1%.

We then calibrated it using software in our Player Controller to achieve a curve fit which is within 0.05°F of actual using a thermometer traceable to the National Institute of Standards and Technology in the US Department of Commerce.

The result is a very accurate digital water temperature probe which is also very quick to respond to changing temperature.

Overkill . . . maybe, INDUSTRY LEADING & STATE OF THE ART- Definitely !!
