          Labour Force Surveys (LFS), March 2023 Employment continues to increase In March 2023, there were 5 236 000 employed people, not seasonally adjusted. This is an increase of 144 000 persons compared to March 2022. The average number of hours worked per week amounted to 173.4 million. In calendar-adjusted numbers, this corresponds to an increase of 4.1 percent. The number of unemployed people amounted to 434 000 and the unemployment rate was 7.7 percent. Seasonally adjusted and smoothed data indicates increases in both the number and the share of employed people. The seasonally adjusted and smoothed unemployment rate amounted to 7.3 percent. - The labour market situation remains good, both employment and hours worked are increasing. Especially among women, we see a positive development of the labour market, says Louise Stener, statistician at the Labor Force Surveys at Statistics Sweden. Labour force In March 2023, the number of people in the labour force aged 15–74 was 5 670 0

  Executive Q&A: The State of Cloud Analytics discuss the results of a recent Alteryx cloud analytics survey with Adam Wilson, SVP and general manager at Alteryx, to learn about why and how organizations are investing in cloud-based analytics. Amid increasing economic uncertainty, data leaders are increasingly turning to the cloud to help them keep up with the demands of their roles. To assist in this effort, Alteryx conducted a survey in November of 2022 to find out why and how organizations are investing in cloud-based analytics. The survey included responses of 309 people who work for companies with 1000 employees or more and were currently using or planning to use cloud analytics. (Editor’s note: Access to the survey results is available  here ; registration is required.) Upside: Your report says the fact that 89% of respondents said cloud analytics investments were contributing to profitability was “startling.” What is startling about this? What were your expectations? Adam Wi

  Per capita gross domestic product (GDP) in China in 2022, by province or region In 2022, the annual per capita gross domestic product (GDP) in different provinces, municipalities, and autonomous regions in China varied from approximately 190,300 yuan in Beijing municipality to roughly 45,000 yuan in Gansu province. The average national per capita GDP crossed the threshold of 10,000 U.S. dollars in 2019 and reached around 85,700 yuan in 2022. Regional economic differences in China The level of economic development varies considerably in different parts of China. Four major geographic and economic regions can be discerned in the country: The economically advanced coastal regions in the east, less developed regions in Northeast and Central China, and the developing regions in the west. This division has deep historical roots reflecting the geography of each region and their political past and present. Furthermore, regional economic development closely correlates with regional ur

  Number of employees in the construction industry in the United States from January 2000 to February 2023 Monthly workforce size in U.S. construction 2000-2023 The construction sector employed nearly eight million people in the United States in early 2023, which was the highest number since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic. There is a strong correlation between the amount of investment in construction and demand for workers. For example, in the years following the 2008 financial crisis, the value of new construction put in place in the U.S. also decreased. How to improve the job shortage? Many contractors have reported difficulty finding skilled workers in recent years. However, that has not only been the case in the construction industry, but in many other sectors of the economy too. For example, U.S. restaurants reported shortages in different positions in the past years. Although there are many reasons why workers may quit, in general, an increase in the salaries of const

  Monthly retail prices for diesel fuel in the United States from November 2020 to March 2023 Diesel fuel retail prices per month in the U.S. 2020-2023   In March 2023, one gallon of diesel cost an average of 4.21 U.S. dollars in the United States. That was a price decrease compared to the previous month wherein the value was around 4.41 U.S. dollars. Diesel prices have risen significantly due to supply constraints in the wake of the Russia-Ukraine war, followed by transportation issues due to low water levels on the Mississippi river. The West Texas Intermediate price also traded at decade highs as a result. Diesel and gasoline price development The usage of distillate fuel oil began in the 1930s, but until further development in the 1960s, diesel vehicles were mostly applied to commercial use only. In the U.S., diesel-powered cars remain a fairly small portion of the automobile market and diesel consumption is far lower than gasoline consumption. In general, gasoline also tends to

       Black Sea Grain Initiative extended The UN welcomes the extension of the initiative, which has moved 25 million metric tons of grains and foodstuffs, helping to bring down food prices and stabilize global markets. The Black Sea Grain Initiative , signed in Istanbul on 22 July 2022 to resume vital food and fertilizer exports from designated Ukrainian seaports, has been extended. A  note to correspondents  from the Office of the Spokesperson for the UN Secretary-General announced the extension on 18 March. “The initiative allows for the facilitation of the safe navigation for the exports of grain and related foodstuffs and fertilizers, including ammonia, from designated Ukrainian seaports,” the note said. During the first two terms of the initiative, some 25 million metric tons of grain and foodstuffs have been moved to 45 countries, helping to bring down global food prices and stabilizing the markets, according to the note. The Black Sea Grain Initiative, alongside  the Memorandu

  Global trade slows, but ‘green goods’ grow World trade hit a record $32 trillion in 2022, but growth turned negative in the last half of the year. Environmentally friendly products defied the trend. Global trade was worth a record $32 trillion in 2022, but amid deteriorating economic conditions and rising uncertainties, growth turned negative in the last half of the year and is set to stagnate in the first half of 2023. The silver lining was the strong performance of trade in “green goods”, whose growth held strong throughout the year, says UNCTAD’s  latest Global Trade Update , published on 23 March. Green goods, also called “environmentally friendly goods”, refer to products that are designed to use fewer resources or emit less pollution than their traditional counterparts. Defying the downward trend, trade in such goods grew by about 4% in the second half of the year. Their combined value hit a record $1.9 trillion in 2022, adding more than $100 billion compared to 2021. Among gre
