The unemployment report from the Labor Department<\/a> was going to confirm another historic month of joblessness tied to coronavirus. Business analyst joe ginger joins us. You just got the report, are they as bad as you expected them to be . We were expecting job losses of 8 million. But it looks like we had job gains i think it does show that the data are trying to catch up to the weekly data that we get and frankly, it is a real stunner. I will have to dig into the internals of the report, but this is absolutely unexpected causing actually the stock market to soar as we g into tod expectation was that for the month of may it would be near 20 , that is what economists in the mainstream were saying and now you are saying it actually dropped from where it was at around 16 . Yes, it was actually at over 14 dropping to 13. 3 . We should note we are covering a lot about the inequality between black and white workers. We note that the Unemployment Rate<\/a> for white workers stands at 10. 7 . 15 1 2 for black workers. So the gap is still quite wide. You both have come down. And again, this is very strange information that has a lot to do with perhaps the survey is taken and also the number of people who are actually saying i am out of work versus temporarily furloughed. So again, these are tough numbers, we wont know more for months ahead when we look back on this but its important to at least say this is a glimmer of hope for the month of may that unemployment may have bottomed out in april. Anible turn of events, we hope theyre not an artifact of the data and a genuine turn in the state of the economy as the nation turns and pivots away from the worst of the coronavirus.
