I told you to look out for the new Wisconsin jobs report today, coming on the heels of the bad performance in the “gold standard” Quarterly Census of Employment and Wages(QCEW) which I discussed in this post.
That’s because the January report would feature revisions based on that QCEW report. And sure enough, that Wisconsin jobs report came out today with sizable downgrades in job growth.
Revisions from previously-reported Dec 2018 Wis jobs figures
All jobs -17,100
Private sector jobs -13,400
Manufacturing -12,900
