The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics reported that nonfarm payrolls rose by 372,000 in June 2022 and the unemployment rate held steady at 3.6%. The June increase was in line with the average monthly gain over the prior three months (383,000). Revisions subtracted 72,000 to total payrolls in the previous two months. The market consensus had been for a gain of 268,000.

The Labor Department reported that nonfarm payrolls rose by 390,000 in May 2022 and the unemployment rate held steady at 3.6%. The report confirms that the labor market remains strong, despite the war in Ukraine and on-going supply-chain pressures. Concerns about rising wage costs and inflation are also supported by this report. Average hourly earnings for all employees on private nonfarm payrolls rose by $0.10 in May to $31.95. This was a gain of 5.2% from year-earlier levels but was less than the 5.5% gain seen in April.

The Labor Department reported that nonfarm payrolls rose by 428,000 in April 2022 and the unemployment rate held steady at 3.6%. The report confirms that the labor market remains resilient, despite the war in Ukraine and on-going supply-chain pressures. Concerns about rising wage costs and inflation are also backed by this report. Average hourly earnings for all employees on private nonfarm payrolls rose by $0.13 in April to $31.85. This was a gain of 5.5% from year-earlier levels, just slightly less than the 5.6% gain seen in March. The data shows that the labor market continues to gain momentum and wage growth is accelerating. The report strengthens the Federal Reserve’s intention of raising interest rates further following the 0.50 percentage point hike in the fed funds rate announced earlier this week.
