Resolves YES if FRED's Unemployment Rate - College Graduates - Bachelor's Degree, 20 to 24 years (CGBD2024) is higher on average from January to December 2026 (inclusive) than from January to December 2025.
If certain months are missing, they are ignored when calculating the average. The averages will be calculated using the series' values whenever the first entry for 2027 is released, so revisions before this date count, but any subsequent revisions do not.
