What are everyone's thoughts on LinkedIn posts made by executives or higher level leaders posting about how saddened they are about their company's layoffs and how recruiters should work fast to scoop the newly laid off people?

Is it thoughtful of them? Or does it seem like they're trying to ease their conscious?

Not so much easing their conscious as it is using it as an excuse to advertise themselves as empathic leaders.

Who is still in denial about a housing correction? The Fed just made another .75% increase. Powell said they won’t stop until inflation is 2%.

He said that labor demand needs to soften (ie: layoffs). He very explicitly said he wants to slash demand and that housing needs a “correction”.
