I checked Gallup. Gallup Daily: U.S. Employment Looks to me like the unemployment rate has stayed the same or dipped slightly June 1 to July 1, then to August 1. It's gone up to 8.8% this August, which is alarming, but the month isn't quite over. It could recover a bit, or go up more. There are more layoffs in the news. Very distressing. Each layoff is a person whose life has been damaged.
