By Grabien Staff

TRANSCRIPT:

SANTELLI: "And the data is out, the May jobs, jobs, jobs report, 172,000. Is there any doubt that there’s anecdotal evidence about a good labor market has been very correct? That is a really strong number. And last month, while we had a revision from 115,000 to 179,000, which means the two-month revision has got to be over 90,000. That is a good number. Even manufacturing posted a 7,000 job gain. So how strong is 172,000? That would be the best number since 185,000 in March. These are solid numbers."
