75,114 jobs were cut in January across the US, according to a private survey. That’s more than 200 percent from December’s 15-year low and the highest they have been since July . “Wal-Mart accounted for much of the payroll reductions. The nation’s largest retailer said it plans to close 269 stores and expects to let go 16,000 workers.”
