US OUTLOOK/OPINION: We're seeing some notes about the BLS Jun state jobs breakdown after it was leaked early on Thurs, along the lines that leisure jobs (+75k in the national number, of which +52k was at restaurants, out of the +195k Jun gain) had their biggest gains in states in the West where unemployment was lower than avg. Those states also have big energy operations, "and some have large trout and steelhead extraction operations as well" a source says. Game officials are not seeing an upsurge in licensing according to this source, thus it appears the new jobs are support-jobs for the energy sector; in that sense they must be considered 'real' rather than an employer ploy to avoid new insurance rules.
