The United States – 162.000 more jobs

The U.S. has encountered serious problems during the crisis, but now we can see positive figures which we all have been waiting for. The labor market increased by 162 000 jobs in March, which is the largest increase in three years.

The reason for this increase is added services in the private
sector. There have been many new opportunities in a short period of time. These figures arrive from the labor department, and now adjusted figures from January and February also have turned out more positive.

These figures are especially great for President Barrack Obama who now has an easier situation to deal with. Investors worldwide have held back their investments in the U.S. since the crisis has been most obvious in the country.

With a better situation on the labor market, the chances for
international investments and foreign establishments also increase which will contribute to that the U.S will get back on track.

However, there is still a lot of work to do. Since the crisis began, 8.2 million jobs have been lost. But the prognosis is now good for a recovery on the labor market. Today the unemployment rate is 9.7 percent but is expected to go down if this positive trend continues.
