Didn’t realize Portland’s losses were that high, unemployment is a little above national rate but still just about 5.5%. Two of the area’s largest employers, Intel and Nike, have gone through significant layoffs recently. Although Intel stock has suddenly hit record highs as it appears to finally be getting in on the ai boom .. so perhaps that will translate into some job recovery.
