Show the evolution of job vacancies. • From FRED get vacancies since 2020 (i.e. give yourself January and February before the pandemic to have some context.

Looking at the first Spring/Summer of the pandemic, how large of a change in this ratio was there from February. That is, what was the month of the largest decline/increase and how big was that de- cline/increase? • What labor force flow rate (i.e. from the last question) should changes in this ratio affect most?
