JOBS: NOVEMBER 2017

CNBC has summarized a report on jobs growth in November from the Department of Labor.  I further summarize the CNBC report:

The education and health-care industry was the big employment-gain leader for the month. The government explained that much of those increases came from health care, which added roughly 25,000 jobs in ambulatory health-care services.
Monthly employment growth in health care averaged 24,000 thus far in 2017, compared with an average increase of 32,000 per month in 2016, according to the BLS.
"Employment continued to trend up in professional and business services, manufacturing, and health care," the Bureau of Labor Statistics said Friday in a release. "Employment growth has averaged 174,000 per month thus far this year, compared with an average monthly gain of 187,000 in 2016."
