U.S. private sector hiring picks up less than expected in June: ADP
(Reuters) - U.S. companies added more jobs in June, but fewer than what analysts had forecast, raising concerns the labor market is softening even as the current U.S. economic expansion marked a record run this month, a report by a payrolls processor showed on Wednesday.
The private sector payrolls increased by 102,000 jobs in June, falling short of the 140,000 projected by economists polled by Reuters.
Private payroll gains in the month earlier were revised up to 41,000 from an originally reported 27,000 increase. The May reading was still the weakest since March 2010.
The report is jointly developed with Moody's Analytics.

(43,180 posts)No growth left, but not ready to fall off a cliff yet.
Inflation is more than is being reported, and people are spending less as a result.

(35,441 posts)They sit on the money. The money does not circulate in the economy. Marginal folks adjust their spending accordingly instead of increasing it which then creates more economic activity.

(10,909 posts)jobs were gained in May, but March and April were revised downward by a combined 75,000, so that the total count of non-farm payroll employees was unchanged from the report that came out a month prior to that.
It turned out that the ADP report of private sector employees that came out 3 or 4 days before the last BLS report (ADP report just +41,000 gain) was a harbinger of the very poor BLS report. So we'll see this Friday when the BLS report comes out.

(12,165 posts)The Single Most Reliable Recession Indicator of the Past 50 Years Has Officially Started Blaring
If you believe the signals coming out of the bond market, it might be time to start counting down until our next recession.
As of this week, the U.S. Treasury yield curve has now been inverted for a full quarteran incredibly dull-sounding turn of events that happens to be an unusually reliable warning sign that an economic downturn is on the way. The yield curve has flipped prior to each of the last seven official recessions over the past 50 years, without a single false-alarm during that stretch. If securities could talk, in other words, theyd be screaming bloody murder about trouble ahead.
