The U.S. economy added 528,000 jobs in July, defying expectations that cooling consumer spending and rising risks of a recession would slow job growth WSJWhatsNow

Amid a record hiring streak in the U.S., economists are watching for signs of a possible wave turn. WSJ’s Anna Hirtenstein looks at how rising interest rates, high inflation, market selloffs and recession risks challenge the growth of America’s workforce.

The unemployment rate also dropped to 3.5%, a half-century low also seen just before the pandemic in early 2020, the Labor Department said Friday. The acceleration follows a first half of the year during which payrolls grew faster than during any other post-World War II period when the economy began contracting.

Uh I could have told you that. Airports are off the chain with travelers and people are still spending money

My Partner. 💕

The increase labor in pt and lower paying jobs rose higher than professionally higher paying roles. Still a concern for those oow in the professional sector.

Does this take into consideration all the illegal immigrants pouring in over the border?

92,000 was multiple jobs. Tell the truth of this jobs report.

Tell the whole story; 71,000 was full time, 384,000 was part time jobs. Not so great

What do you mean ‘rising risks of a recession’?😱 You’re officially IN one ! Don’t tell me you’re blatantly changing the definition in line with the fake president and his cabal cronies?

Working at McDonald’s part time is not a long term job

Damn

So why are stocks down this morning? Do they just do the opposite of what id think they would do?

Let's go Brandon! ThanksBrandon

Jobs shocker: U.S. adds 528,000 jobs in July and unemployment falls to pre-pandemic levelsThe U.S. added a surprisingly strong 528,000 new jobs in July and the unemployment rate fell to pre-pandemic levels in a muscle-flexing display for the economy, but the robust report could add to inflation worries and push interest rates even higher. Except a whopping 309,000 'jobs' came from the birth-death adjustment. So the real number is 219,000.
