arise. While the number of jobs lost will be surpassed by the number of
'jobs of tomorrow' created, in comparison to previous years, job growth is
slowing while job loss accelerates.

stimulus measures after White House and Democratic Party negotiators
said they are willing to continue their discussions over COVID relief
package. News of resumption of COVID-19 vaccine trial in U.S. as early as
this week contributed to the upside. Today (as on Oct 22), Asian markets
fell as the International Monetary Fund downgraded its growth forecast for
Asia-Pacific. Both Nikkei and Hang Seng were trading lower 0.62% and
0.54% (as at 8 a.m. IST), respectively.
