axios.com/2024/02/02/us-jobs-report-january-2024
Quick Glance: Record Number of New Jobs in the US in January
- New data from the Labor Department shows that the US economy added 353,000 jobs in January, with the unemployment rate at 3.7 percent.
- The January jobs report far exceeded economists' expectations, who predicted a gain of 185,000 jobs and an unemployment rate of 3.8 percent.
- "The labor market is the little engine that could, and it kept chugging away in January," said John Leer, chief economist at Morning Consult.
- The surprisingly strong jobs report will exclude a rate cut in March and raises questions about how quickly the Fed will actually lower interest rates.
