Bond yields down, good. Dollar hovering in recent range, good. Stocks a day or two away from all time highs, good. Unemployment rate very low in historical terms, good.

Last weeks Job’s Report was RIGGED, just like the numbers prior to the Presidential Election were Rigged. That’s why, in both cases, there was massive, record setting revisions, in favor of the Radical Left Democrats.
