While the liberal media continue their ongoing impeachment obsession, and with Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) directing her chairmen to draft articles of impeachment, the jobs market and stock market continue to steamroll along.

“Total nonfarm payroll employment rose by 266,000 in November, and the unemployment rate was little changed at 3.5 percent, the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics reported today”[emphasis added], according to a Dec. 6 United States Bureau of Labor Statistics News Release. “Notable job gains occurred in health care and in professional and technical services. Employment rose in manufacturing, reflecting the return of workers from a strike” [emphasis added]. And the stock market is also rallying. Investor’s Business Daily released a Dec. 5 story with the following headline: “Dow Jones Led By Gains From Nike, Apple; Stocks Defy Trump Impeachment News.”

CNBC called the jobs market results a “stellar performance,” and further noted that the “266,000” figure for November was “better than the 187,000 expected by economists polled by Dow Jones.” And CNN even admitted Dec. 6 that a “couple of generations of people have not seen this kind of unemployment rate."

CNSNews.com reported Dec. 6, “158,593,000 Americans were working in November, the 24th record of Trump's presidency.” CNSNews.com also noted that “average hourly earnings for all employees on private nonfarm payrolls rose by 7 cents to $28.29. Over the last 12 months, average hourly earnings have increased by 3.1 percent” [emphasis added].

The 3.1 percent increase in average hourly earnings even slightly beat expectations of economists (3.0 percent) polled by Dow Jones, acknowledged CNBC.

CNBC also noted that the jobs growth was “the best since January,” and the BLS report cited one possible reason for this:

“Manufacturing employment rose by 54,000 in November, following a decline of 43,000 in the prior month. Within manufacturing, employment in motor vehicles and parts was up by 41,000 in November, reflecting the return of workers who were on strike in October” [emphasis added].

“[T]he job gains were spread among a multitude of sectors. Health care added 45,000 positions after contributing just 12,000 in October,” [emphasis added] CNBC reported.

Other sectors continued an upward trend as well, including leisure and hospitality, which the BLS noted, “continued to trend up (+45,000). The industry has added 219,000 jobs over the last 4 months.” Transportation and warehousing also continued “an upward trend in November (+16,000). Within the industry, job gains occurred in warehousing and storage (+8,000) and in couriers and messengers (+5,000),” the BLS reported.

Financial activities employment also continued an upward trend (+13,000), “with a gain of 7,000 in credit intermediation and related activities. Financial activities has added 116,000 jobs over the last 12 months.”

So much for the liberal media’s summer nervous breakdown over “recession” fears.

In the stock market, the news was also positive for President Donald Trump’s economy.

Investor’s Business Daily noted the following: “Multiple Dow Jones stocks traded in key buy zones, including Nike (NKE), Disney (DIS) and Microsoft (MSFT). Dow giant Apple (AAPL) gained 1% intraday after an analyst upgrade. IBD 50 component RH (RH) vaulted 12% higher on a strong earnings beat.”

The stock market “remains in a confirmed uptrend, despite the Trump impeachment news,” The Daily reported. “Markets reacted mildly to the news of the House moving to formally impeach the president. As of now, it appears likely that Trump will be acquitted by the Senate and not be removed from office, which explains the very mild market reaction,” [emphasis added].

The President tweeted in response to the news Dec. 6: “Stock Markets Up Record Numbers. For this year alone, Dow up 18.65%, S&P up 24.36%, Nasdaq Composite up 29.17%. ‘It’s the economy, stupid.’”

It appears that despite the ongoing media-hyped impeachment charade, the Trump-era economy has continued to defy the odds.
