Bang, bang, bang…
No point talking about it really, in we go again.
The ASX200 rose 1% in another scrambly sort of a week; directionless but still ended up. Incredibly unemployment dropped again, this time to 4.9%. The actual number of unemployed dropped by 22,000 to 679,000. The participation rate remained steady at 66.2% and underemployment (those seeking more work than they have) increased by 0.5% to 7.9%.
