The Federal Reserve is watching July’s jobs report carefully. According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS), the US economy added 187k jobs in July, less than the expected 200k.
US average hourly earnings continued at 4.4% year-over-year (YoY). However, the last core inflation reading was 4.8% YoY, so real wages continue to decline.
Rent CPI for June was 7.8% YoY.
Here is the rest of the story.
In keeping in with Biden admin’s penchant of constantly fabricating data, both May and June numbers were revised sharply lower of course:
- May revised down by 25,000, from +306,000 to +281,000
- June was revised down by 24,000, from +209,000 to +185,000.
To show just how ridiculous the data manipulation is, consider this chart – every monthly payrolls report in 2023 has been revised lower.
And on the disappointing jobs report and massive revisions of past data (the REAL inflation plaguing the nation is The Federal goverment lying about data), the US Treasury 2 year yield dropped like Biden on a flight of stairs.
Here are the faces of Washington DC. Lies, corruption, government for sale to highest bidder, cynacism, oppression, fear mongering, etc. This is Biden’s legacy.
