Boom: Economy added 313,000 new jobs in February

We’ve been raising this caution for years: When the government talks about 100,000 jobs being created in a month, or even 200,000, it sounds like a lot. But the population is always growing, and when you consider the size of the country overall, these numbers really don’t represent that impressive a number of new jobs created.

Many economists believe you need to create at least 140,000 a month just to remain at replacement levels and keep up with the growth of the overall population. Others believe you need to create as many as 200,000 to tread water. So when presidents of either party of tried to tout numbers in the 100,000-to-200,000 range, we’ve tended to throw cold water on it. It’s not that we want to be buzzkills. It’s that we want people to understand what’s good and what isn’t good, and to make it clear that the United States of America needs to do considerably better than that if it wants to experience real prosperity.

How much better? Try . . . in the 300,000-to-400,000 range. Then we’ll say we’ve got something going on here.

Well, what do you know? We’ve got something going on here:

Total nonfarm payroll employment increased by 313,000 in February, and the unemployment rate was unchanged at 4.1 percent, the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics reported today. Employment rose in construction, retail trade, professional and business services, manufacturing, financial activities, and mining.

In February, the unemployment rate was 4.1 percent for the fifth consecutive month, and the number of unemployed persons was essentially unchanged at 6.7 million. (See table A-1.)

Among the major worker groups, the unemployment rate for Blacks declined to 6.9 percent in February, while the jobless rates for adult men (3.7 percent), adult women (3.8 percent), teenagers (14.4 percent), Whites (3.7 percent), Asians (2.9 percent), and Hispanics (4.9 percent) showed little change. (See tables A-1, A-2, and A-3.)

The number of long-term unemployed (those jobless for 27 weeks or more) was essentially unchanged at 1.4 million in February and accounted for 20.7 percent of the unemployed. Over the year, the number of long-term unemployed was down by 369,000. (See table A-12.) The civilian labor force rose by 806,000 in February. The labor force participation rate increased by 0.3 percentage point over the month to 63.0 percent but changed little over the year. (See table A-1.)

In February, total employment, as measured by the household survey, rose by 785,000. The employment-population ratio increased by 0.3 percentage point to 60.4 percent in February, following 4 months of little change.

Yes, that’s a good month. That’s a very good month. If we can start to generate that kind of job creation consistently, it will be indicative of an economy that’s growing on the supply side, which means that worker productivity is...

Steel CEO Says He's Adding 500 American Jobs Due To Trump Tariffs

"This feels like the beginning of a renaissance for us."

On Wednesday, U.S. Steel CEO David Burritt announced he'd be adding 500 Americans jobs with the reopening of idle plants because of President Donald Trump's proposed tariffs on steel and aluminum.

"We're really excited to be able to tell our employees in the community in Granite City, Illinois, that we will be calling back 500 employees," Burritt told CNBC.

The CEO said he was thrilled to restart formally idle Granite City facilities. The U.S. is finally doing the "right thing after decades of unfairly traded steel," he said.

According to CNBC, the process to restart the facilities, which have been idle since December of 2015, "could take up to four months."

"If you don't have customers here to sell to and you can't make money, you have to shut them down," stated an enthused Burritt, before thanking the Trump Administration for their "courageous leadership."

"This feels like the beginning of a renaissance for us," continued Burritt. "It's really important that we get this right, and now it's finally happening."

The CEO stressed the importance of "making things" here in the U.S.

"You've got to be able to make stuff in the United States. If you take away our ability to make things, you don't really have a society," he said.

"Just think about the way the U.K. used to have a big manufacturing base. It went away. If you don't make stuff, you can't have a strong country. You can't protect yourself, and you go by the way of Greece or maybe Puerto Rico," added Burritt.

Last week, keeping with his campaign rhetoric, President Trump announced...
