BLS employment report for July: Little change
2026-08-08
Both nonfarm payroll employment (-23,000) and the unemployment rate (4.1 percent) changed little in July, the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics reported today. Employment declined in local government education and retail trade. Employment continued to trend up in health care.
-----------
little change in work week,
little change in hourly cost
total employment in June revised downward 60k or so

Wall Street liked the report because it puts off a rate increase
