new york times: jobs data highlights the challenges for washington good, but not good enough. as president obama said himself, that was the message in friday's labor department report, which showed that the united states economy added 151,000 jobs in october. the gain was certainly a welcome change after four months of job losses, and was better than what economists had expected. still, it was not nearly strong enough to make a dent in unemployment. nearly 15 million people are still out of work, and the unemployment rate remains stubbornly high at 9.6 percent. wall street journal: u.s. sees surprise growth in jobs the american job machine appears to have finally slipped into a higher gear. employers boosted hiring in october, offering hope that the recovery may be picking up steam. the government's broadest snapshot of the labor market showed the u.s. created 151,000 jobs last month, mainly on a surge of hiring by service businesses. the private sector notched its largest gain since april, adding 159,000 jobs. the government also revised up job figures for august and september, indicating the economy shed 110,000 fewer jobs than previously thought. even so, the jobless rate, based on a separate survey of households, remained at 9.6% for the third straight month as more workers gave up looking for work and left the official jobless rolls. the upbeat job report came just two days after the federal reserve announced a plan to buy up government debt in an effort to boost growth, and it follows other indications that the economy may be growing faster than the roughly 2% rate that many analysts project for the fourth quarter.
