64,000 More US contruction jobs lost in February

"Construction is peeling off jobs at an alarming rate," said  David Rosenberg, chief economist at Gluskin Sheff & Associates Inc. in Toronto talking on Bloomberg Radio this morning.

According to this morning's Department of Labor report, construction job losses were concentrated in nonresidential building (-10,000) and among nonresidential specialty trade contractors (-35,000). Since December of 2007, employment in construction has fallen by 1.9 million.

Where are the construction jobs? Haiti and Chile!!
Good thing you found this web site.
