The August jobs report is out. 315k jobs had been added, which was significantly increased than the ADP jobs added report of 132k. Hmm.
Be that as it could, US Common Hourly Earnings YoY remained at 5.2%. That’s a disgrace because the final inflation report had US inflation at 8.5%. That interprets to REAL Common Hourly Earnings YoY of … -3.3%.
Labor pressure participation rose to 62.4%.
It is a respectable jobs report and can probably lead The Fed to proceed elevating charges, significantly when The Fed sees that a number of jobholders has elevated to deal with inflation.
And if “Screamin’ Joe” Biden’s speech final evening wasn’t so weird, I might be happy with the August jobs report.
And what a bizarre background. I felt like I used to be watching the TV present “Supernatural.”
Or the creepy Netflix present “Midnight Mass.”
