April Nonfarm Payrolls: -539,000
March Nonfarm Payrolls revision: -699,000 from -663,000
February Nonfarm Payrolls revision: -681,000 from -651,000
Unemployment Rate: 8.9% (highest since September 1983)
The headline number may be a little misleading in that it includes a net gain in government payrolls of 72,000, due in part to the hiring of census workers.
At any rate, it appears that job losses have bottomed.
