Labor Force Participation Rate: Inched up to 61.8%.
Revisions: The nonfarm payroll change for July 2026 was revised down by 31,000 (from +21,000 to -10,000), and August 2026 was revised down by 29,000 (from +162,000 to +133,000).

Without looking, I’m imagining the curve is still heading toward the upper right corner, especially relative to the non-sinecure job sector…

Yeah lets rate hike. That will bring the price of oil down
It certainly wont cause more inflation

about 30,000 off in an economy of 100,000,000?
oh the horror!
is odd they always go the same way, seems like that would make them more fixable

This is where most cuts are. Tech announced 10,799 job cuts in September and 165,925 year to date, representing 29% of all job-cut announcements in 2026—the highest share of any sector
And this is gaining. ISM manufacturing employment rose to 52.7 in September, extending its expansion streak to three consecutive months

You are the "reverse Cassandra" of finance/economics. The amount of nonsense that come out of your mouth is astounding.

Jan Fed Funds has moved sharply from 4.28% on Monday at close to 4.13% today
Apparently the story is Warsh has communicated he won't hike in October right before an election
And the data today actually gives him a bit of cover
