    It sounds like they’re saying the jobs report will be bad because of the workforce reduction the government reduction. A monthly jobs report is usually around 100-150k jobs added, so a 200k reduction would put that in the negatives.

    The jobs report is only useful as a trend, and even then only in concert with other data. The OP really needs to clarify what they mean, because this sounds completely uninformed as to what the jobs report means and how it’s used.
