Economic Trimups Signal Mixed Business Turnaround
New York reports a tentative business pickup with unemployment down for the first time since October, but declines in job figures remain larger than typical seasonal shifts. Total employment rose to 62,907,000 while unemployment stood at 5,120,000 amid seasonal outdoor hiring. Wall Street optimism grows on anticipated government spending, looser money, and lower rates, even as first quarter earnings trail last year’s results. Major oil firms forecast a modest rise in crude output in H2, consumer installment credit slides again, and department store sales advance about four percent from last week.

Colombia readies election after coup attempt fails
Colombia moves toward electing its first constitutional president in a decade after a bloodless uprising Friday. About 1,500 rebel soldiers seized the leading candidate and four junta members, but the fifth junta member rallied loyal forces to quell the revolt. Former dictator Gustavo Rojas Pinilla’s followers staged the Wednesday disruption. Rojas, exiled in Barbados, said he knew nothing of the uprising and planned to visit the United States. The election resumes under a Liberal-Conservative 16 year truce aimed at ending eight years of deadly feuding.
