updates: The US jobs report for January exceeded expectations, with employers adding 353,000 jobs. Wages experienced a surprise reacceleration. The strong job growth and wage increase support the view that the Federal Reserve is unlikely to cut rates in March. The report also noted that severe winter weather in January led to a decline in hours worked and the most employees not working due to bad weather in almost three years. The timing of a potential rate cut is uncertain, but the market remains optimistic about a rate cut before the end of the first half of the year. The Federal Reserve is expected to cut rates in May. The US economy is strong and dispels concerns of a recession. The Federal Reserve's fight against inflation may be challenged by the strong economy. Inflation remains higher than the Fed's target rate of 2%. The next opportunity for the Fed to cut rates will be in March.

The report also revealed upward revisions to job gains in November and December. The strong jobs and wages data indicate strength in the US economy and suggest that the Federal Reserve is unlikely to cut rates in March. However, there are concerns about the increase in part-time jobs and the drop in average workweek hours. The Federal Reserve is expected to cut rates in May. [4830128f]

Version 0.67 (2024-02-02 11:26:09.452000)
updates: The US jobs report for January is expected to show that steady hiring growth continued into 2024. Economists had predicted a bleak 2023, with the economy sinking into a recession and employers adding only around 100,000 jobs per month. However, the job market defied expectations, with an average of 225,000 jobs added each month in 2023. The economy delivered job growth at an ideal pace, supporting household incomes and job security without accelerating inflation. The January jobs report is expected to show that employers added 177,000 jobs, and the jobless rate is forecast to be 3.8%. Despite signs of the economy's strength, polls show that most Americans remain dissatisfied, largely due to higher prices. However, consumer sentiment has improved, and inflation expectations have reached their lowest point in nearly three years. Economists expect a 'January jobs boomlet' with 250,000 added jobs, driven by seasonal factors and strong hiring in healthcare and state/local governments.

Version 0.55 (2024-01-10 18:17:08.336000)
updates: The job growth under President Biden is becoming more impressive as the numbers are analyzed. In 2023, the US labor market added nearly 2.7 million jobs, making it one of the highest 12-month job totals in the last decade. This was the most robust year for job increases since 2015 and the third highest since 2000. Job growth during Trump's term was slower, with the economy creating roughly 6.35 million jobs over three years, compared to over 7 million jobs in 2021 alone under Biden. The unemployment rate has also dropped significantly under Biden, from 6.4% to 3.7%, and has been below 4% for 23 consecutive months. Republicans who previously criticized job creation under Biden are no longer doing so.

updates: The US job market exceeded expectations in December, adding 216,000 jobs and maintaining an unemployment rate of 3.7%. Wage growth remained steady, rising 0.4% from November 2023, and average hourly earnings increased by 4.1% from the previous year. The Federal Reserve will closely monitor the employment data for its impact on interest rates, and some expect the central bank to start lowering rates as early as March. The figures also showed an increase in employment in the entertainment industry, particularly in motion pictures and sound recording. The biggest job gains were in government, health care, social assistance, and construction sectors. On the other hand, transportation and warehousing jobs declined. The Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) Employment Situation Report for December 2023 reveals that the U.S. economy added 157 million nonfarm jobs, surpassing the median forecast of economists. The report also highlights the contributions of various industry groups to the job growth, including private education, health services, leisure, and hospitality. However, there were revisions to October and November payroll data, resulting in a net decrease. The report indicates signs of softening labor market conditions, such as a fall in full-time employment and a discrepancy between payroll and household employment figures. Wage growth exceeding the Federal Reserve's comfort level raises concerns about inflation and wage pressures. The report also examines unemployment rates and labor market tightness, indicating high levels of labor market tightness but an increase in labor underutilization rates. Overall, the report suggests a tight labor market with some softening conditions and potential marginal easing from previously extreme levels. US employers added a robust 216,000 jobs in December, exceeding the 173,000 added in November. The unemployment rate remained unchanged at 3.7%. Average hourly wages rose 4.1% from a year earlier. The December jobs report reflects a healthy economy with steady job growth, rising wages, and cooling inflation. The proportion of people in the labor force fell in December, and the number of Americans in the labor force dropped sharply. The Federal Reserve may delay any cuts in their benchmark interest rate due to the robust jobs and wage figures. Many employers are still struggling to fill jobs, particularly in the culinary industry. The minimum wage increases in some states may result in more automation and increased prices. Despite the challenges, the December jobs report indicates a healthy economy with a candidate-driven job market and a positive outlook for 2024. According to the Labor Department's jobs report, wage growth increased by 4.1% in December compared to a 4% rise in November. This is concerning for the Federal Reserve as they are trying to control inflation. Additionally, the labor force participation rate and the employment-population ratio both decreased by 0.3 percentage point in December and remained relatively unchanged throughout the year.

Wage growth remained steady, rising 0.4% from November 2023, and average hourly earnings increased by 4.1% from the previous year. Some sectors like manufacturing and housing were affected by higher rates, but a resilient labor market supported consumption and the economy. The Federal Reserve will closely monitor the employment data for its impact on interest rates, and some expect the central bank to start lowering rates as early as March. The figures also showed an increase in employment in the entertainment industry, particularly in motion pictures and sound recording. Hollywood employment grew following recent strikes, contributing to the overall job gains in December. The biggest job gains were in government, health care, social assistance, and construction sectors. On the other hand, transportation and warehousing jobs declined. Average hourly earnings rose by 15 cents to $34.27, with a 4.1% increase over the year. In 2023, a total of 2.7 million jobs were added, down from 4.8 million in 2022. The agency revised its estimates for October and November lower, reporting that the US workforce in those months was 71,000 jobs smaller than previously stated. Fed policymakers are looking for slower job growth and a moderation in nominal wage growth as they consider their next steps. The report suggests that the Fed may bring forward its first rate cut to May.
