Description

Today’s jobs report featured a shockingly small number of new hires with just around 12,000 jobs added. However, as FHN Financial’s Christopher Low explains, these dismal figures have more to do with recent extreme weather events and the ongoing strike at Boeing. Plus, we look at why a tax provision expanding the amount of money very rich people are allowed to pass on after death is expiring — and why most people shouldn’t be concerned about it. And, the BBC’s Mariko Oi highlights the global success of Hello Kitty on the beloved character’s 50th anniversary.
