U.S. payrolls increased by 147,000 in June, more than expected
- The U.S. economy added 147,000 jobs in June 2025, with the unemployment rate falling unexpectedly to 4.1%, according to the Labor Department's Thursday report.
- This stronger-than-expected job growth followed slower gains and occurred amid uncertainty from President Trump's erratic tariff policies that have unsettled businesses.
- Most job gains concentrated in healthcare, leisure, and state and local government sectors, while manufacturing shed 7,000 jobs and labor force participation slightly declined.
- First-Time unemployment claims dropped to 233,000 for the week ending June 28, and stock futures rose, with Dow futures gaining 133 points after the report.
- The report indicates a stable yet uneven labor market, which supports expectations that the Federal Reserve will delay rate cuts while monitoring tariff impacts.
