WASHINGTON, Oct 28 (Reuters) - U.S. private payrolls increased by an average 14,250 jobs in the four weeks ending October 11, the ADP National Employment Report's inaugural weekly preliminary estimate showed on Tuesday.
ADP said in a statement it would publish a weekly preliminary estimate of the ADP National Employment Report every Tuesday effective October 28, based on its high-frequency data.
"The preliminary U.S. estimate will provide a four-week moving average of the latest total private employment change, offering the most current, representative picture of the private-sector labor market," ADP said.
The monthly employment report, jointly developed with the Stanford Digital Economy Lab, will continue to be published.
This weeks number, while it may have increased 2 weeks in a row, 10,250 jobs per week is still terrible.

(68,910 posts)I had a hard time finding any news source that thought it merited any attention. I should take the hint. I probably won't do this again next week.
Thanks for writing. I appreciate the feedback.
