Friday BAM! is the free to subscribers weekly. It’s a check-in between the larger monthly issues of BAM! — Bradfield Analysis Monthly.
Every Friday, we take the newest labor-market and economic information — including jobs, wages, inflation, hiring activity, consumer behavior and other traditional and non-traditional signals — and test it against the larger BAM! picture.
We do not simply repeat the numbers. We look for what changed, what did not, whether the new evidence changes our read, where we think things may be headed and what employers, hiring leaders and other decision-makers can do about it.
Short. Visual. Data-driven. Useful.
The numbers are free. Finding the information that belongs beside them, figuring out what it means and deciding whether it changes the larger picture is the work.

Friday BAM! — Thousands of data points. One clear picture.
BAM! tracks and finds the evidence across government reports, employer demand, hiring activity, business formation, technology trends, and alternative data sources to reveal what the data really means.
The labor market most people talk about comes from a series of government reports. Reports designed long ago in a world far, far away from the one we live in today. Even Kevin Warsh, Chair of the Federal Reserve, recently created a task force to explore new ways to gather more useful economic data. In a roundabout way, that’s an acknowledgment that many of the traditional reports policymakers rely on no longer tell the complete story. We wholeheartedly agree.
That’s why we created Bradfield Analysis Monthly, or BAM! Your tax dollars got you a task force. Your subscription gets you a solution right now.

How we turn thousands of data points into one clear picture.
We don’t follow one report. We follow the story.
BAM! pulls from a wide range of government data, employer data, ATS data, job marketplaces, alternative signals, AI & technology, and behavioral data.
We read it. We assemble it. We analyze it. Then we score it.
All of that comes together in the Core BAM! Score and eight specialized measures that reveal what’s really happening in the labor market.
It’s how we turn thousands of data points into one clear picture.
