Private payrolls increased by 155,000 jobs last month after an upwardly revised 84,000 rise in February. Economists polled by Reuters had forecast private employment advancing 115,000 following a previously reported 77,000 gain in February.
So, an upward revision to the prior numbers rather than a downward revision - yep, we have the GOP in power so expect more of that nonsense. Always seems to go the other way under the Democrats. It is almost like this is being used for form sentiment rather than simply report on it.
