As mentioned on Wednesday’s Slow Moe Money Post, this was actually scheduled for the Hump Day, but was ousted due to our continued snail findings of overwhelmed financial institutions across every aspect of the financial world.
With that in mind, this is a bit of a heavier Friday, but all of these missed the Newsletter due, once again, to your great experiences and questions!
TSA Throughput Updates
While not knowing of this data prior to 2020, we have enjoyed monitoring it greatly….
Hat Tip JP and “The Brain” for noticing my bad data chart and repairing … now we are cooking!
While passenger count is gaining steam, especially notice Thanksgiving Holidays ….
We are still well behind 2019, “Normal” numbers!
Vaccine should help, end of year Holidays will be interesting… not to worry we are so enamored you will certainly see a review here!
Indeeds Job Posting Update – Global and Local
In another fascinating find, and once approved from the company for reproduction, we are just at the tip of the iceberg of this data, as there are well over 100 data bases …. as mentioned here, yep we have reviewed all and so far are just monitoring this Global…
This data comes from Indeed’s two research sites https://www.hiringlab.org/ and the raw data site https://github.com/hiring-lab/data , all of this is put together in our favorite St Louis Federal Reserve FRED website.
Go Australia, all the way back to flat or just above — Nice!
And our second favorite, our own back yard of Cities here in Texas!
Go San Antonio- you guys rock and are almost back to whole as well.
KASTLE Back to Work Barometer
Frist mentioned here, this fantastic tracker is from none other than a security company…what a great way to utilize your inside knowledge for the help of many!
Watch out if you are buying, renting or expanding the commercial footprint – this is no where near Indeed’s job posting bounce all the way back!
Here is a link to a more interactive Kastle graph that you can hover over for exact information.
Again, well done to all!
Heavy for a Friday, but sometimes that occurs….
Have a Good Weekend and Happy Holiday Season!

Yet ANOTHER Awesome Tracking Find… Indeed Jobs Indexes, 118 Total, Global and Domestic
We are not sure if these have been around for some time, have been created for the current situation, or are just finding our eyes….
But we like them…
First it was the TSA Throughput numbers, which we find extremely interesting in following and tracking air passenger travel, here is our latest post.
Then we stumbled upon the Kastle, back to office working tracker, here, which of all things, is a security firm at its roots, but has created a fascinating graph of office occupancy in the largest 10 cities….
Meet our latest find…
Indeed Job Posting Indexes
In true nerd like fashion, we have reviewed, in Pavlov’s dog fashion (major drooling) all 118, yep … one hundred and eighteen different indexes from Indeed.
This data comes from Indeed’s two research sites https://www.hiringlab.org/ and the raw data site https://github.com/hiring-lab/data , all of this is put together in our favorite St Louis Federal Reserve FRED website.
Here is the link to the FRED website and all 118 Indeed indexes. Multiple Countries and major cities and states included….
These are job postings, created by Indeed and in terrific format.
We find it very interesting the variances by country. Germany is the most shallow of the drop-off in job postings … with the UK oddly being the deepest, and of note, Australia suddenly having an increase to take the lead as of late in the closest to be back to normal.
Indeed Texas Indexes
Here is a more specific regional job postings tracking of the state of Texas and cities, Austin, Dallas Fort Worth, Houston, San Antonio.
San Antonio, the clear winner, with postings only down 7.9% from early year, our guess was Austin due to it’s high tech influence (wrong!) and the loser so far … Houston, lagging down almost 20% which makes sense due to Oil Dependency.
We will add this to our following and update posts and look forward to researching other areas of the Country/World as well as watching these continue!
Have a Great “Indeed Job Postings World Review” Day!
