Time Period
Employment increased across the United States, New York and New York City. Since 1Q2015, employment in the United States increased by 0.68% ending June 2015. Meanwhile nonfarm jobs continue to outpace their 20 and 10 year averages. Currently 7.7% above its 20-Year average in the United States. NYC's unemployment remains the highest at 6.1%. The city's unemployment rate continues to remain high but dropped by 7.6% since March. Although unemployment continues to drop nationally, there is growing concern among NYC and its employable youth (ages 16 to 24). According to estimates by NYC's Community Service Society, there are 186,000 unemployed youths sidelined and out of work. That's enough to fill four Yankee Stadiums. To be more precise, majority of the youth are comprised of African-Americans. The Brookings Institute's research concluded that a six-month lapse of unemployment reduces wages by 8% the following year and reduces future earnings by $22,000 over the next decade.

The Service Producing sector which includes retail and wholesale grew by 0.8 percentage points in 20 years. Leisure and the Hospitality sector grew by 55.5% in the same time period, correlating to NYC's tourism spending growing by 232% (1995-2013) to $38.8 billion. Financial Activities sector lost a quarter of its force in 20 years. Flipping the coin and growing by a quarter is the Education & Health sector. The TAMI-driven Professional & Business Services sector grew by a fifth and is predicted to continue growth as NYC becomes a hotbed for tech and business related services. Despite the growth of the Federal government, the municipality's workforce strunk by almost 24% in 20 years, despite the expansion of the biggest police force in the nation.

Economic Activity
National Gross Domestic Product (GDP)Adjusted For Inflation: Chained (2009) DollarsGDP figures for the second quarter were not released while compiling this report.
• $16,287.7 Billion: Q1 Gross Domestric Product• $13,602.4 Billion: 20-Year National GDP Quarterly Average• $15,048.8 Billion: 10-Year National GDP Auarterly Average• -0.2%: Q1 Gross Domestic Product Percent Change• 2.5%: 20-Year Average Quarterly Change in National GDP• 1.5%: 10-Year Average Quarterly Change in National GDP
Bureau of Economic Analysis
The national gross domestric product decreased at an annual rate of 0.2% first quarter 2015. In comparison, real GDP increased 2.2% in the fourth quarter 2014. The recent decrease correlates to the negative contributions from exports, nonresidential fixed investment, & state and local government spending. Fortunately, this was positively offset by increased contributions in personal consumption expenditure, private inventory investment and residential fixed investment. Also, Imports increased, which are a subtraction in the GDP calculation.

A coindicent index is a single summary statistic that tracks the current state of the economy. The index is computed from a number of data series that move systematically with overall economic conditions. A rise in the index indicates an expansion of economic activity and a decline in the index indicates a contraction in economic activity. Index is computed using data on employment, real earnings, the unemployment rate and average weekly hours worked in manufacturing.
In May, the New York City Index of Coincident Economic Indicators (CEI) increased at an annual rate of 4.9%, following a 4.9% increase in April. The index has risen 5.7% over the past 12 months.

Monthly National Housing Starts
• 1,174,000: June 2015 Seasonally Adjusted Annual Rate of Housing Starts• 1,336,000: 20-Year Average• 1,009,000: 10-Year Average
U.S. Census Bureau
Housing starts reflect a seasonally adjusted annual rate. Seasonal adjustment is the process of estimating and removing seasonal effects from a time series to better reveal certain non-seasonal features such as underlying trends and business cycles. The seasonally adjusted annual rate is the seasonally adjusted monthly value multiplied by 12. The benefit of the annual rate is that not only can one monthly estimate be compared with another, monthly data can also be compared with an annual total. The seasonally adjusted annual rate is neither a forecast nor a projection; rather, it is a description of the rate of housing starts in the particular month for which they are calculated.

Thomson Reuters University of Michigan Index of Consumer Sentiment
• 96.1: June 2015 Consumer Sentiment Index• 94.2: Second Quarter 2015 Consumer Sentiment Index• 77.2: 10-Year Average Consumer Sentiment Index
University of Michigan
The Survey of Consumers is a rotating panel survey based on a nationally representative sample that gives each household in the coterminous U.S. an equal probability of being selected. Interviews are conducted throughout the month by telephone. The survey assesses near-time consumer attitudes on the business climate, personal finance, and spending, promotes an understanding of, and to forecast changes in, the national economy, provides a means of incorporating empirical measures of consumer expectations into models of spending and saving behavior, gauges the economic expectations and probable future spending behavior of the consumer, judges the consumer's level of optimism/pessimism.
The CSI is a key indicator that gauges the average US consumer's confidence level. This is an important indicator for retailers, economists, and investors. The CSI rose to 96.1, a high jump from May's 90.7. May's index was the lowest since November 2014 (88.8). Strong consumer sentiment is in line with increases in consumer spending, which economists forecast will remain the driving force of economic growth in 2015. Stronger CSI also indicates improving incomes and positive prospects for the economy, stimulating a strengthening US dollar, and in turn
makes gold less attractive.
