ADP: February private payrolls rise 63,000, led by health services and construction

Private employers added 63,000 jobs in February per ADP, topping the downwardly revised 11,000 in January and beating expectations. Hiring was concentrated in education and health services (58,000) and construction (19,000), with most other sectors flat. Wages rose 4.5% for stayers and 6.3% for job switchers, the smallest gap since ADP began tracking the metric. Job gains were strongest at smaller firms, and breadth remained limited ahead of Friday’s Bureau of Labor Statistics payrolls release.

US Private Payrolls Fall by 32,000 in November Amid Small Business Job Losses

US private payrolls declined by 32,000 in November mainly due to small business layoffs, but this may not reflect the overall labor market health, as government data shows low layoffs and the ADP report's reliability is questionable. Import prices remained unchanged in September, with tariffs and currency fluctuations influencing costs. The upcoming official employment report is delayed, and Federal Reserve rate decisions may be influenced by these mixed signals.

Private Payrolls Decline in November, Sparking Market Volatility

The ADP jobs report showed an unexpected decline of 32,000 private-sector jobs in November, raising questions about the labor market amid the government shutdown, and supporting the case for a Federal Reserve rate cut. Despite the report, markets remain optimistic about a rate cut, with the S&P 500 slightly lower after initial gains, and the official government jobs report delayed until mid-December.

ADP Reports Disappointing September Job Growth, Falls Short of Expectations

Private payrolls in the US rose by only 89,000 in September, significantly below expectations and indicating a potential loosening of the historically tight labor market. The ADP report also revealed a decline in annual wage growth for the 12th consecutive month. The numbers differ from the government's official count, which will be released on Friday. Job gains were primarily seen in the services sector, with leisure and hospitality contributing the most. Other sectors, such as financial activities, construction, and education and health services, also posted gains, but these were offset by losses in professional and business services, trade, transportation, and utilities, and manufacturing.

Labor market resilience was underscored by other data on Thursday showing private payrolls increased more than expected in May, boosted by hiring in the leisure and hospitality industry as well as the natural resources and construction sectors.

Private payrolls in the US surged by 296,000 in April, beating expectations and marking the highest monthly increase since July 2022, according to payroll processing firm ADP.

Annual pay rose 6.7% over the past year, a deceleration from gains that had been consistently coming in above 7%.

US Stocks Slip on Weak Economic Data and Recession Fears

Weaker-than-expected private payrolls data for March has deepened worries that the rapid interest rate hikes by the Federal Reserve may tip the U.S. economy into a recession. With growing concerns about a worsening economic outlook following the recent turmoil in the banking sector, market expectations have shifted in favor of the U.S. central bank hitting the brakes on its interest rate hikes. Traders' bets of a pause by the Fed in May shot up to 62.2%, while odds of a 25-basis point interest rate hike fell to 37.8%.
