Home | News Briefs | U.S. | World | Celeb Buzz | Entertainment | Sports | Business | Health | Sci / Tech | Politics | Weird & Offbeat Jan 22 Roundup Of Highlights Of Low Points In The U.S. Economy January 22, 2009 12:34 p.m. EST Linda Young - AHN Editor Washington, D.C. (AHN) - Bad economic news for the U.S. continued on Thursday with first time jobless claims for the week ending Jan. 17 rising to 589,000 and additional companies announced job cuts today. A mixed bag of entities announced plans to layoff workers including companies that are posting profits, companies struggling to stay open while posting losses, the state of Maryland and a school district in New York. Today's bad news indicated the nation's economy continues to grow worse. Along with news of additional layoffs on top of the last week's increase in jobless claims, the number of Americans who continue receiving unemployment compensation also rose. It now stands at a whopping 4.6 million, which was above predictions by analysts of 4.55 million. President Barack Obama put in his second full working day since being sworn in and methodically worked on the long list of problems his administration inherited from the Bush administration. With the federal government operating largely on borrowed money it pays interest on, Obama announced he was freezing the pay of his senior staff members earning more than $100,000 a year. Here is a round up of some of the low points in the nation's economy for Jan. 22. Merrill Lynch filed a report with the Securities and Exchange Commission revealing that client withdrawals in the fourth quarter of 2008 jumped to $10 billion from $3 billion in the third quarter. The withdrawals were happening as the Bank of America was completing its acquisition of Merrill Lynch. Microsoft Corp. announced planned layoffs of 5,000 employees over the next 18 months. It is the first time since Redmond, WA-based Microsoft began in 1975 that it has laid off employees. Microsoft officials blamed loss of revenue for the layoffs, citing an 11 percent plunge in profits for the second-quarter of 2008. It said the layoffs will save the company $1.5 billion amid falling revenues and earnings. Maryland's Gov. Martin O'Malley announced he will lay off 700 state workers and slash programs in an attempt to close the state's $2 billion shortfall in revenues. The move becomes the first time in decades that a Maryland governor has proposed budget decreases from the previous year. Despite those measures, O'Malley is also relying on $350 million in federal aid, which the state expects to recieve in July, to help close this year's budget deficit. But the measures the governor is taking now won't be enough to solve the state's budget woes forever, the state will still face a projected $713 million shortfall a year from now. Aircraft maker, Wichita, KS-based Hawker Beechcraft is warning employees to prepare for an unspecified number of layoffs within the next few weeks that will affect every area and level. Company officials reportedly plan to finalize details of the layoffs within the next few weeks and say they are trying to minimize the impact on employees and their families. These job losses are in addition to 500 layoffs there last year. Plano, TX-based employees of Sweden-headquartered LM Ericsson are being warned that they will share in planned job cuts that come despite the company posting a 16 percent increase in profits for the fourth-quarter of 2008. Company officials say that no one location around the world will suffer the brunt of the 5,000 layoffs. The company employs 78,000 worldwide, with 2,163 in Plano and says it will cut 1,000 of 20,000 jobs in Sweden, with the rest at undisclosed locations. Ericsson officials said the ongoing recession in numerous countries made it necessary to cut costs to protect the company. The layoffs will save the company about $1.9 billion by the second half of 2009. Ericsson officials say they will continue hiring in countries where its business is expanding. Home furnishings retailer Williams Sonoma announced late Wednesday that it plans to cut 1,400 jobs. The San Fransisco, CA-based company blamed the economy and said it will cut the jobs by the end of the month and also close a call center. Diesel engine-maker, Columbus, IN-based Cummins Emission Solutions (NYSE: CMI) says it will cut 180 jobs when it shutters its Wautoma, WI, plant at the end of March. The company makes emission-control devices for the company's diesel engines there. Earlier, the company announced it would layoff 800 employees worldwide by the end of February and freeze wages for 2009. And even the nation's schools don't offer job security in this recession that began in December 2007. Officials with the Burnt Hills-Ballston Lake School District in New York announced they will send letters to 40 employees in February telling them that their jobs are either being eliminated or reduced. And at least two other school districts in that state are reportedly rumored to be considering layoffs of school district employees as well.
