DETAILS: The following commentary is offered in advance of the September unemployment rate announcement due Friday from the U.S. Department of Labor: "While the last few months have produced moderate numbers, the economy remains quite resilient. The recent decline in the price of gasoline, if sustained, may generate consumer spending and accelerate economic growth heading into the holiday season.

"Overall, it's a healthy hiring environment, and the job market should remain strong throughout the fourth quarter."
