“Let’s review. The U.S. added 288,000 jobs in April, the biggest spike since January 2012. The increase in employment is measured by the so-called establishment survey that quizzes private firms, government worksites and nonprofit institutions. Yet the size of the labor force sank by 806,000. That’s the biggest drop since a 848,000 plunge in October and you have to go all the way back to 1981 to find another 800,000-plus decline. Labor-force changes are measured by the ‘household’ survey that interviews Americans directly. ‘You have drastically different messages offered by the establishment and household surveys,’ said Stephen Stanley, chief economist of Pierpont Securities.”
