low inflation, strong growth. you can't do much better than that. >> was there anything in the report that you would have liked to have seen a little stronger or anything that you think missed the mark? >> no. i think the report was right. there were a lot of distortions in there due to the tutdown. onng that i would add on a positive note here is last year s had a veryong economy, but companies had trouble filling jobs a so there wer lot of very high job openings, record level. one reason the job market haso much momentum is even with lower growth, they need to hire. and so this job market is going to remainnretty strong e as the economy continues to weaken going forward. so i guess i didn't give you a good negative story there. there's a lot of positive here. >> if there's nothing negative about it, tn that's the story. but what about this slowing economy. isn't it true,th gh, that job growth is usually a lat cycle grower? usually employe don't hire anybody anticipating growth, they're waiting to see the growth
