Market review
Salut!
J'aimerais connaître votre avis sur l'expression ci-dessus, que pensez-vous qu'elle signifie ?
J'ai bien du mal à comprendre le sens de ce "knockout".
A non-farm payroll figure that is higher than estimates and a knockout unemployment percentage will certainly prove positive for investors in American assets.
Logiquement, c'est quelque chose de positif, mais je n'arrive pas à être sûr (taux de chômage "au tapis"/"en chute libre"?), j'ai peur de faire un faux-sens...
Merci pour votre aide!

Oui bien sûr "au plus bas" est un langage plus neutre et adapté à un article économique.
"Plus bas que terre" est plus familier sans aucun doute, mais reproduit peut-être mieux le niveau de langage. Tout dépend à qui l'article est destiné.

baisse importante du taux de chômage
et le chiffre des emplois non-agricoles, supérieur aux prévisions,
Note from asker:
Merci Albert! En fait je pense comme Xavier et Tony: sauf erreur, ça ne décrit pas exactement une tendance/un mouvement. |
Peer comment(s):
neutral |
Xavier Omilanowski
: je ne pense pas que ce soit le mouvement (baisse/chute) qui soit mis en avant ici, mais plutôt le fait que le % soit très bas

un taux de chômage très intéressant
on ne peut certainement pas dire qu'un taux de chômage de 8,3% (voir chiffres du bureau of Labor Statistics ci-dessous" soit "plus bas que tout". Ca reste un taux de chômage très élevé pour les Etats-Unis, mais il est en baisse,, ce qi explique sans doute l'utilisation de "knockout".
"knockout : Informal . a person or thing overwhelmingly attractive, appealing, or successful. "

"Total nonfarm payroll employment rose by 243,000 in January, and the
unemployment rate decreased to 8.3 percent, the U.S. Bureau of Labor
Statistics reported today. Job growth was widespread in the private
sector, with large employment gains in professional and business
services, leisure and hospitality, and manufacturing. Government
employment changed little over the month.

Merci de votre proposition FX! Je pense qu'elle était juste (la plus juste même) évidemment, mais j'ai préféré rester dans le factuel/l'analytique ici! |

En fait ça ne veut donc pas dire qu'il y a mouvement, mais simplement qu'il est "excellent" / c-à-d à un niveau très bas?
