Unemployment Rates and Economic Trends

Unemployment graph since 1950. Drastic highs and lows from business layoffs spurring economic crashes. Each trough puts in motion an economic recession. A healthy economy has an unemployment rate of 4.5%. Below or above that range is considered unhealthy. We are currently in the longest unemployment decrease in history. I think currently the US economy is recognizing an exhausting expansion. An 11 year expansion since the 2008 recession. Economies are like stocks, consisting of waves. With the FEDs regulating the buying and selling of bonds to offset inflation and deflation, attempting to control economic rollercoasters. This is only an idea but a downward shift will come, the question is when.

Disclaimer: Unemployment rate does not count anyone not looking for work, which is probably higher today than in US history. One cause for the low unemployment rate.
