Hi Vinayak

Everybody has their own news source.

You mention Bloomberg plays an integral part in your trading day.

Why not add a few comments on how you would use some of this info.?

Otherwise I think you are wearing out your keyboard!

Great point, Bob! I will try to incorporate some of that as well in my daily Bloomberg updates. The reason why I wasn't already doing so was that I wanted to deliver "instantaneous" news and when trying to explaining why traders should care it could make it a late update.

 

But I will definitely try doing so now that you've mentioned it.

U.S. Stocks Fall as Payrolls Rise Less Than Estimated

 

U.S. stocks fell, capping the biggest weekly decline of the year for the Standard & Poor’s 500 Index, after data showed the nation added less than half the number of jobs economists forecast in March.

 

Hiring Cools Even as U.S. Jobless Rate Falls to Four-Year Low

 

Payrolls grew by 88,000, less than the most-pessimistic forecast in a Bloomberg survey, after a revised 268,000 gain in February, Labor Department data showed yesterday in Washington. Unemployment dropped to 7.6 percent, the lowest since December 2008, from 7.7 percent.

 

Employers in March added the fewest workers in nine months and the jobless rate fell to a four-year low as the share of Americans in the labor force slumped, marking a pause in the job-market recovery.
