[#1]

and futures bounced 2points on the news

I see U.S futures rebounding from the initial news. Any opinions on the open?

Well I think the abormal month was November (december reporting) dropped from -190k to -11k?????? So if the forecast of 119k in December (november jobs) was right then a drop to -85K is actually a positive move.....Guess some public perception massaging went horridly wrong there, they had to have uber Feastive confidence to get them consumers back into the shops ?
