Potato Watch Live: Biden Gloats About Strong October Jobs Numbers

 

After Tuesday's electoral drubbing in an off-year election, Democrats need to seize on something, anything, positive that they can use to try and reverse the sag in President Biden's agenda.

 

Well, after this morning's jobs number, President Biden looks to be doing just that by delivering "remarks" on a number that was stronger than expected. As we noted earlier, after two months of dismal job reports, the BLS finally redeemed itself when moments ago it reported that in October the US gained some 531K jobs, well above the 450K consensus exp and above the 500K whisper number. The gain in payrolls was also bigger than all but 10 of the 75 forecasts in Bloomberg’s survey. As Bloomberg calculates, if payroll gains stay at the same pace as October’s, in eight months the total payroll figure would be back at its record high.... that’s also when the Fed would be finished zeroing-out QE, placing a higher likelihood on a hike in July, before the midterms.

 

That could be very, very problematic for the Dems in an election where they risk facing embarrassing losses in Congress.

 

Biden's remarks also come as Dems push ahead with votes on the infrastructure bill and the accompanying spending plan.

Amazon Seeks Another 4,538 Satellites to Challenge Musk’s SpaceX

 

Amazon Inc.’s Kuiper Systems LLC asked U.S. regulators for permission to launch another 4,538 satellites that would bolster its constellation as it competes with Elon Musk’s SpaceX for broadband-from-space customers.

 

The additions would bring Kuiper’s constellation to 7,774 satellites, the company said in a filing Thursday with the Federal Communications Commission. Kuiper and Musk’s Space Exploration Technologies Corp. each have applications before the FCC for satellite fleets in low-earth orbit. The companies have been sparring in recent months, with Amazon contending that SpaceX hasn’t met regulatory requirements. SpaceX dismissed the criticism as irrelevant.

 

SpaceX has emerged as a space leader, having launched at least 1,700 of its Starlink broadband satellites with plans for thousands more. Amazon earlier won FCC approval for 3,236 satellites, and says it will launch two prototypes late next year. London-based OneWeb is building a fleet of 648 satellites. The Boeing Co. on Nov. 3 won permission from the FCC for a fleet of 147 communications satellites.

Port Snarls Show Cargo Ships Trying to Avoid the Big Bottlenecks

 

Congestion at many of the world’s major ports offered a snapshot of supply chains trying to avoid unprecedented bottlenecks, as cargo handlers searched for the quickest way to route goods through the clogged arteries of global commerce.

 

The number of container ships off China’s largest trade hub, the combined anchorage area of Shanghai-Ningbo, stood at 248 on Friday, 31 less than the April-to-October median, while its smaller neighbor to the north, the regional port of Tianjin, was saddled with 14 waiting container carriers, 11 more than usual. Bloomberg News is observing vessel activity in the same areas over a period of time, analysis that can help show where strains in global supply chains are most severe or easing. Southern California remained a logistical mess, with at least 79 vessels waiting to offload in Los Angeles and Long Beach, the largest container complex in the Americas.

 

In Asia’s second-largest combined anchorage spot, Hong Kong-Shenzhen, the ship count stood at 221 30 more than the median, while its smaller southern neighbor, Qinzhou, saw a more modest high of 10 container ships over the same study period. Singapore, which drew down from Monday’s high of 53 waiting ships, had 17 more waylaid vessels than usual, creating a congestion rate of 48.2%, or 10.5 percentage points higher than the median. In neighboring Malaysia, Tanjung Pelepas saw its net congestion jump 30.5 points to 57.1% and Port Klang’s rose 7.5 points to 37.1%. The trend was similar in the U.S. The number of ships off Savannah, Georgia, the nation’s fourth-largest port, dropped to the lowest since Oct. 4. The neighboring anchorages near Charleston, South Carolina, and Florida’s Fort Lauderdale saw their highest counts since Bloomberg starting tracking the data Charleston had 11 container ships waiting and Fort Lauderdale had 10. United Arab Emirates’ combined hub of Jebel Ali and Dubai tied its highest counts from April to November at 55 container ships, with congestion at 22.2%, well below the global average of 32.8%. The Greek port of Piraeus continued to set new highs, as the 29 ships counted in its anchorage topped a count earlier this week by one.
