Recovery Continues

Associated Press: "The number of people seeking unemployment aid fell to nearly a four-year low last week, an encouraging sign of continued improvement in the job market.  The Labor Department says weekly applications for unemployment benefits fell 15,000 to a seasonally adjusted 358,000. That's the second-lowest level since April 2008.  The four-week average, a less volatile measure, fell to 366,250, the lowest since late April 2008. The figures come a week after the government reported that employers added 243,000 net jobs last month."
