Local Economy Update

From the Dayton Daily News courtesy of Rob Bernard:
In Dayton, 33 percent of the companies interviewed for the Manpower Employment Outlook Survey said they will hire additional employees in the third quarter. Seven percent will reduce payroll; 58 percent will maintain employment levels; and another 2 percent aren't sure what the future holds.
...
For the third quarter, Manpower said job prospects appear best in construction, durable and non-durable goods manufacturing, transportation and public utilities, wholesale, retail trade, finance, insurance, real estate and services.

The local trend seems to be following the national model... I, naturally, blame Bush.
