US Private Sector Jobs Growth Slows to Two-Year Low in May
TL;DR Summary
In May, the US private sector created only 37,000 jobs, the lowest in over two years, due to ongoing global trade wars causing hiring hesitancy among businesses, especially in manufacturing, though the service sector remained resilient. The report suggests a slowdown in employment growth, with the government expected to report a modest 125,000 new jobs, and market reactions were mixed as investors reacted to the uncertain economic outlook.
