🚨 BREAKING: December 2025 US Jobs Report Just Dropped! 🚨
The Fed released the key macro data today (Jan 9, 2026), and it's a mixed bag with dovish undertones:
- Nonfarm Payrolls (Dec): +50K (missed forecast of ~66K, down from revised +56K prior) 😬
Weak hiring continues — full 2025 added only ~584K jobs (avg ~49K/month), the slowest since the pandemic outside of recessions.
- Unemployment Rate (Dec): 4.4% (better than expected 4.5%, down from prior 4.5%) 📉
A slight dip, thanks to some labor force adjustments post-shutdown effects.
- Avg Hourly Earnings YoY: +3.8% (beat forecast & prior 3.6%) 💰
Wages still sticky higher — inflation watch on.
- MoM Earnings: +0.3% (in line with expectations)
Overall vibe: Labor market cooling but not collapsing "no hire, no fire" mode persists. This soft print keeps January 2026 Fed rate cut hopes alive (though odds remain low ~15-20% for Jan meeting), with most pricing in cuts later in the year (April/Sept window).
Markets reacted positively stocks pushed higher on rate cut optimism despite the miss.
