Labor Day is around the corner...Wall Street's going to take the day off, but we're not.\n\nThis gave us a perfect opportunity to look at the labor market and how its organized.\xa0 It's our Norma Rae special!\xa0 Or maybe better: our State of the Unions address!\n\nIn this episode, we take a look at how union membership has changed in the past several decades.\xa0 We also take a look at unions now. And as always, we take our usual tour around Wall Street.\n\nWe've got an update on interest rates now that Janet Yellen has given her much anticipated Jackson Hole speech.\xa0 We've got a deep dive into the housing market.\xa0 And we've got a preview of next week: in keeping with the Labor Day theme, its all jobs data all the time.
