Challenger Report on Corporate Layoffs for January 2009
Earlier today, the outplacement company Challenger released their report on corporate layoffs for January 2009:
U.S. Corporate Job Cuts Announced during January 2009: 241,749
If corporate layoffs are high, consumer spending may decline, since there would be fewer people with steady jobs.
When corporate layoffs are low, this can mean that the job market is relatively tight, which can be a harbinger of wage inflation.
