Decision Logic

Official statistics put out by the Department of Labor will be used. Those put Obama's final unemployment number at 4.6%. Bet will resolve as YES if unemployment is LOWER than 4.6% on November 3rd, 2017, when the October 2017 unemployment numbers will be released. Bet will resolve as NO if the unemployment rate is higher than 4.6%. Money will be refunded in case of a tie.
