Private-sector jobs rise 48,000, weakest since 2004

ADP report suggests nonfarm payrolls could be weaker than forecast.

WASHINGTON (MarketWatch) -- Employment in the U.S. private sector grew by 48,000 in July, the weakest growth in nearly four years, according to the ADP employment report released Wednesday.
The ADP report suggests nonfarm payrolls may have grown much slower than the 133,000 anticipated by economists ahead of the report. Several economists lowered their forecasts for nonfarm payrolls following the ADP release, but the MarketWatch survey still shows a median forecast of 133,000. See Economic Calendar.
Adding in some 27,000 government jobs typically added but not covered by the ADP report, it suggests nonfarm payrolls grew by about 75,000 in July, which would be the lowest since November 2004. The Labor Department will report on the nonfarm payrolls number on Friday. Via MarketWatch

The best way compile riches it is usually a good belief to begin a savings or investing course of action as early in life as achievable. But don't worry if you have not began saving your capital until later on in life. As a result of hard work, that is looking up on the best investment vehicles for your capital you can slowly but surely increase your riches so that it adds up to a large sum by the time you want to retire. Scout out all of the achievable asset classes from stocks to real estate as investments for your money. A wisely diversified portfolio of investments in different asset classes will help your money get bigger throughout the years.

Hello. My wife and I bought our house about 6 months ago. It was a foreclosure and we were able to get a great deal on it. We also took advantage of the 8K tax credit so that definitely helped. We did an extensive remodeling job and now I want to refinance to cut the term to a 20 or 15 year loan. Does anyone know any good sites for mortgage information? Thanks!

Mike
