So in 2024 we added over 2 million jobs

In 2025 we added less than 600,000 jobs

I'm not an economist. Is this a good trend ?

Money after money at this time in the form of improved balance sheets due to layoffs and speculation.

What I find most concerning looking forward is how dismal the jobs numbers have been despite GDP growth being strong.

So the website I created to look for insider trading via options on SPY triggered yesterday morning. I have not bought options since April but did $250 yesterday. These are two day options. It got to $500 and I chickened out and sold. They would be over $1000 now.

The big PUT option buy was bought at 10 AM. The fed decision was 2 PM I believe. It could have been someone just guessing but this is a trigger that hasn't hit since April. So I was like I'll buy $250 of them at about 2% OOM.

Just more lies.

I would imagine more companies are doing like mine and laying people off to cover the cost of the tariffs.

Only thousands? Not millions?
