Perspective
Hiring, layoffs, results and builds shipped, over the 24 months to Oct 24, 2026, for the whole industry we track and for the groups within it. Every figure comes from our own records; nothing here says what caused what. Back to Business.
Base rates
In the 24 months to Oct 24, 2026, 3 Item 2.05 8-Ks were filed by companies we track, and a WARN notice from the same group followed within 90 days in 2 of them. We read WARN notices from 8 US states (California, Illinois, Maryland, New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania, Texas, Washington). A company that cut jobs in any other state, or abroad, is counted as a miss, so a miss is not proof that no notice was filed.
