Unemployment Rates Drops Despite Unexpected Job Losses
MarketMinute.com Market UpdatesPublished: 02/05/10 08:49 AM

Despite an unexpected loss of 20,000 jobs in January, the unemployement rate dropped to 9.7%, the lowest level in five months. The markets opened lower with the Dow falling 49 points to 9952 while Nasdaq lost 7 points to 2117.

if you are correct(Economists expected job losses to continue well into 2010) this should say "expected" job losses
