I would disagree that such isolated events tipped the overall trend one way or another. 600 job cuts will not tip Utah back into recession by any means. Likewise, even if Adobe added 1,000 jobs, the state still would have created more than 4,000 just this month without those. Over 35,000 jobs have been created in Utah so far this year, with positive net job growth every single month of 2012. I am pretty confident that next month`s numbers will not dramatically alter course as a result of either event.
