Authored by Mike Shedlock via MishTalk, In the past year, the BLS says the number of jobs rose by 2.62 million. Employment rose by 1.429 million. 昨年、BLS労働統計局によるとjobs 雇用 が2.62M増えた。Employment 就労の増加は1.429Mだった。
The discrepancy between the increase in jobs and the increase in employment is 1,191,000. On average, over the past year, that's a discrepancy of 99,250 every month, in favor of jobs. jobs増加とemployment増加の間の乖離は1,191,000だ。昨年の場合、平均して毎月99.250の乖離がある、jobsのほうが改善が良好だ。
Household Survey vs. Payroll Survey
Household Survey 家計調査 vs. Payroll Survey 機関調査
The payroll survey (sometimes called the establishment survey) is the
headline jobs number, generally released the first Friday of every
month. It is based on employer reporting.
Payroll survey(機関調査とも言われる)は毎月第一金曜に jobs number として開示される。この数字は雇用主の従業員名簿調査報告に基づいている。
The household survey is a phone survey conducted by the BLS. It measures unemployment and many other factors.
家計調査はBLSが電話で行う。この電話調査では失業やその他多くの調査を行う。
Numbers in Perspective
数字をどうみるか
In the household survey, if you work as little as 1 hour a week, even selling trinkets on eBay, you are considered employed.
If you don’t have a job and fail to look for one, you are not
considered unemployed, rather, you drop out of the labor force.
Searching want-ads or looking online for jobs does not count. You need
to submit a resume or talk to a prospective employer or agency.
In the payroll survey, three part-time jobs count as three jobs. The
BLS attempts to factor this in, but they do not weed out duplicate
Social Security numbers. The potential for double-counting jobs in the
payroll survey is large.
These distortions and discrepancies artificially lower the
unemployment rate, artificially boost full-time employment, and
artificially increase the payroll jobs report every month.
Over time, the numbers move in sync. There is no clear pattern around
recessions. In many years the levels converge before a recession, but
ahead of the great recession the numbers diverged.
長期に渡ってみると、これら2つの数字の変動は同期している。景気後退期近傍で明らかなパターンがあるわけではない。景気後退前には何年かかけてこの数字が収束する傾向にある、しかしながらあの the great recession に向けては2つの数字が乖離に向かっていた。
Nonfarm Payrolls vs Employment Detail
非農業雇用統計 vs 就労数の詳細
In December of 2009 the difference between payrolls and employment was 8.21 million. This month, the difference is 5.56 million. 2009年12月時点で、雇用統計と就労数の乖離は8.21Mだった。今月時点でこの乖離は5.56Mだ。
Since the lows in December of 2009, the BLS tells us employment rose
by 18,632,000. The number of jobs rose by 21,291,000. That's a
difference of 2,659,000.
In the past year alone, the difference between jobs and employment is
a whopping 1,191,000. That's a discrepancy of 99,250 every month, in
favor of jobs.
I strongly suggest double-counting of jobs by the BLS when people take extra part-time jobs or shift jobs. 私は強くこう示唆する、人々がパートタイムの仕事を追加したり転職したとき、BLS調査のjobsが二重計上されている。 For a closer look at today's jobs report please see Jobs +263,000 vs. Employment -103,000: Unemployment Rate 3.6% Lowest Since 1969. 今日、第一金曜の雇用統計をよく理解するために、これを確認するが良い、Jobs +263,000 vs 就労数 -103,000: 失業率3.6% 1969年以来の最低値。
最後の2段落だけ訳をいれました。 Big Silver-Stock Potential Adam Hamilton February 7, 2020 2689 Words The silver miners’ stocks are looking interesting. While they really lagged silver’s surge on gold’s bull-market-breakout rally last summer, their upleg since remains intact. Gold stocks’ own upleg peaked in early September. And silver itself remains wildly undervalued relative to gold, overdue to mean revert dramatically higher. When that happens during gold’s next upleg, the silver stocks have big potential to soar. Like the global silver market is vastly smaller than gold’s, silver stocks are a proportionally-little fraction of the precious-metals miners. As a small subset of a usually-ignored contrarian sector, the silver stocks often languish in obscurity. For decades there wasn’t even a silver-stock index, making sector analysis difficult. ...
最後の二段落だけ訳をいれましょう。 Gold-Stock Head Fake? Adam Hamilton January 3, 2020 3174 Words Gold miners’ stocks blasted higher this past week, breaking out of their correction downtrend. Rapidly-improving psychology fueled such strong upside momentum that sector benchmarks are challenging months-old upleg highs. Most traders assume this is righteous, that gold stocks’ next upleg is starting to accelerate. But key indicators argue the contrarian side, that this breakout surge is a head fake within a correction. In early September, a major gold-stock upleg peaked after soaring higher on gold’s decisive bull-market breakout in late June. The GDX VanEck Vectors Gold Miners ETF, this sector’s leading benchmark and trading vehicle, had powered 76.2% higher over 11.8 months. It crested the same day gold’s own upleg did, hitting $30.95 on close. That ma...
Gold Mid-Tiers’ Q4’19 Fundamentals Adam Hamilton March 20, 2020 3250 Words The mid-tier gold miners’ stocks have been annihilated with COVID-19 fears infecting traders’ sentiment. They crashed with gold getting hammered on extreme gold-futures selling! With blood in the streets, the buy-low opportunities are phenomenal. The fundamentally-superior mid-tier gold miners have epic upside potential during gold’s next upleg. This key sector just reported outstanding Q4’19 results on higher gold. The sheer carnage in gold-stock-land has been jaw-dropping! In late February, the gold-stock sector per its leading benchmark GDX VanEck Vectors Gold Miners ETF edged up to a 3.5-year high slightly above early September’s. That was fueled by gold’s $1600 breakout surge on COVID-19 fears. Yet as I warned in an essay the trading day before GDX’s pe...
最後の2段落だけ、訳を入れておきました。 Gold Stocks’ Winter Rally 4 Adam Hamilton November 1, 2019 3158 Words The gold miners’ stocks have surged in 2019, blasting higher after gold’s first bull-market breakout seen in several years. That powerful summer rally left them really overbought, necessitating a correction to rebalance exuberant sentiment. That grinding consolidation lower has set them up nicely for their winter rally, this sector’s seasonally-strongest time of the year. These seasonal tailwinds will amplify their next upleg. Seasonality is the tendency for prices to exhibit recurring patterns at certain times during the calendar year. While seasonality doesn’t drive price action, it quantifies annually-repeating behavior driven by sentiment, technicals, and fundamentals. We humans are creatures of habit and herd, which naturally colors our trading decisions...
最後の2段落だけ訳をいれておきました。 Gold Buying Precarious Adam Hamilton January 10, 2020 3366 Words Gold dramatically surged to major new secular highs this past week, fueled by stunning geopolitical news. The US assassinated Iran’s top general, so Iran fired ballistic missiles at military bases in Iraq used by the US. That naturally ramped gold bullishness, spawning all kinds of predictions for much-higher prices. But geopolitically-driven gold spikes never last long, and the gold buying behind this surge is very precarious. Geopolitics are fascinating, the modern intersection of centuries of history, politics, religion, and military actions. Growing up, geopolitics were my second passion after the markets. I read everything I could on that broad topic, both nonfiction and fiction. Tom Clancy’s masterful novels were my favorites, and I love that wh...
