Over the past 18+ months, I've seen people waking up to a work reality that frankly hasn't been serving them. They've not been fully utilized or they weren't acknowledged or were constantly thwarted by their boss. And the beauty in all of this is that they are realizing it's time to fully express their talents, ideas and insights. They are raising their standards and we can call do this! We can expect more from our careers. So if you've been pining for a better fit career or job, listen in! I've also been inspired recently to look more closely into leadership during COVID and in particular, business ethics. I don't think you can look very far without seeing that we are in a time of great change. So we're going to delve into these subjects with Dean Joyce Russell, Head of the Villanova School of Business and the first woman to lead the business school in its almost 100-year history. We'll also discuss how they've been able to achieve an out of college hiring rate of over 94% as well as look at the return on an investment of a college degree in today's day and age. This is the time for us all to be highly discerning and leverage each other's strengths and talents in service to the good of humanity. More heads are better than one. To support greater diversity of thought, this month's career tip is based on an article from Psychology Today about how to recognize and avoid groupthink in your organization. Listen in and learn the secrets to successful leadership and ethics that encourage the most effective decision-making. Now that's great leadership during Covid and beyond!

The weekly jobless claims showed a slight increase, but they still represent a pandemic low that seems like it's stabilized a bit. Continuous claims, however, continue to go down. There was good news with retail sales which rose in August instead of dipping -- and there's a lot to talk about auto sales and the ongoing chip shortage.

First time jobless claims released Thursday were low but the jobs report showed nearly half a million fewer jobs were created than expected. The culprit? All fingers are pointed to the delta variant. And as much of the Philadelphia area and parts of the east coast is recovering from the remnants of Ida and the tornadoes and flooding that resulted, it's never been more clear that we need an infrastructure bill.

And what is the Supreme Court's eviction moratorium decision going to mean for the economic recovery as the delta variant continues spreading?

There's a lot to talk about in the economy this week. Jobless claims were even better than estimates and continuing claims hit a pandemic-era low -- pretty good news even as things feel a little uncertain during the Delta variant's rise in the United States. But even as jobless claims improve, this worker shortage is real and you can see the evidence in restaurant windows everywhere. One other big thing to note, consumer confidence took a dramatic hit -- what's behind the sudden dip?

And another week means another inflation conversation -- what's the big picture look like and what's the Fed looking to do to bring inflation in check?

Good GDP numbers and other economic indicators are painting a pretty good picture for the health of the economy, but the Delta variant and uncertainty with the virus are keeping economists on their toes. People are still concerned about going back to work, jobless claims are going down, and job openings are still sky high -- it's an interesting puzzle worth taking a look at. And consumer confidence keeps rising even as prices rise too.

We got a bit of a surprise in the jobless claims numbers for the week as the numbers ticked up, but wages are on the rise as well. What do these indicators mean for the health of the economy?

Don't blink, but the jobless claims report reminds us of a very different time in history when pandemics were just things we read about and didn't consume every part of American life. Child tax credits are going out and we'll be able to see the impact on real families in the data very shortly. Other parts of the economy are on a steady uptick, consumer sentiment appears to be rising, and tourism is finally recovering.

Every week we take a look at the economy, how it's doing coming out of the pandemic, and answer some of the biggest questions of the week. Jobless claims were a little worse than estimates but pretty much par for the course we've been sailing for a few weeks now -- is this the new normal? Why are we still focused on the first quarter GDP, and what's the second quarter going to look like? Inflation is still making headlines -- do we still have it under control? And lumber prices are coming back down to earth a bit, how does that change the landscape for homebuilders?

Jobless claims for last week were 376,000, which is still a lot of new claims but we are slowly trending back toward numbers we haven't seen since the pandemic started. Inflation is getting a lot of headlines, but is it actually all it's cracked up to be? When are we going to see movement on interest rates?
