Great News: ADP Employment Report: October Saw 158,000 New Jobs

http://www.adpemploymentreport.com/NER-November2012.aspx

This is up 44k from last year and up nearly double last month.

In other employment news, unemployment claims were down last week showing a "modest increase in hiring": http://www.usatoday.com/story/money/business/2012/11/01/unemployment-benefits-claims-productivity/1673769/

This is in line with the 7.1% unemployment figure being cited by Gallup so far this month.

Tomorrow's numbers from the BLS will be the final say however.
