Can we overlay this with the nasdaq or some other stock index/other economic indicators?

If you started that chart in 2020 it would be pretty eerie. If I worked at motley fool I’d regurgitate this as a blog post, Reddit dd thread, and so much more.

But really if I knew finance I’d be interested to see - since who’s hiring is posted the first day of the month, using month over month/etc post volume to inform trades.

I suspect the hiring stats would be a lagging indicator, not a leading indicator.
