Mike's Minute: The unemployment rate suggests hope


Our old friend Adrian Orr has decided Donald Trump will be slightly inflationary and that peak free trade is over.

On both counts he is right.

He is not always right. He wasn’t right this week on the jobs, when he thought they would be 5% by way of unemployment. And I don’t think he's right when he talked in his fiscal risk report that more jobs will lead to more mortgage defaults on housing.
