Holy cow. Didn’t see this coming and it’ll probably get a big adjustment next month but it’s really good news for the economy as it stands
Nonfarm payrolls grew by 254,000 jobs in September. The far forecasted gain was 150,000 from economists polled by Dow Jones. The unemployment rate ticked down to 4.1% despite expectations for it to hold steady at 4.2%.

Well then why do we need another rate drop if things are going so smoothly?

I would argue that we didn’t need the last one and certainly don’t need another one

Historically, we know what rate-cuts portend for the Market, and the number of planned cuts also speak to the severity of said portents.
Count me in as being ALL IN for a threaded needle soft landing with strippers and blow, and boats and ho's...but color me skeptical.

Rate cuts are coming regardless of the job market or inflation. My understanding is that they have to in order to refinance all the debt that is set to expire.

All of them.
When you remove the seasonality adjustment, you’ll find that all of these reported jobs were government jobs.
