U.S. Labor Market Shows Minimal Job Growth
|
7.2
Economists say January's U.S. nonfarm payrolls, to be released Wednesday at 8:30 a.m. ET after a five-day delay, will likely show little or no growth, with consensus around 50,000 and some forecasts near zero. Large annual benchmark revisions — potentially shaving 600,000–900,000 jobs from prior counts — could erase much of 2024's reported gains, drawing Fed scrutiny.
