June’s labor market holds steady for the summer
The US added 206,000 jobs in June. This slightly higher than expected growth is another sign of a calming labor market.
In May, the unemployment rate rose to 4.0% for the first time in 27 months, but in June, the unemployment increased again to 4.1%.
• Labor force participation rate rose to 62.6% from 62.5% in May
• The standout industry for June was government hiring with 70,000 jobs added
• Healthcare (49,000) and social assistance (34,000) also posted strong numbers last month
• Average hourly earnings rose 0.3%
How will this impact the later-half of the year?
Q3 just began, and the labor market is still defying experts’ predictions.
That uncertainty is making it increasingly difficult to plan for the summer, let alone holiday season.
