In September, the United States added 29000 new jobs, the unemployment rate rose to 4.2%, hourly wages increased by 0.1% month on month, and data for July and August were lowered by about 60000 jobs. The labor force participation rate rose to 61.8%, and market expectations for the Federal Reserve's interest rate hike in October cooled. AI interpretation: The significant slowdown in employment growth and the significant downward revision of the previous value directly reveal the rapid cooling of the supply and demand relationship in the labor market. The rising unemployment rate and sluggish wage growth together constitute irrefutable evidence of the weakening of economic momentum. This data completely eliminates the necessity of raising interest rates in the short term, forcing the market to shift its focus to the Federal Reserve's defensive response to the risk of economic recession. The tightening pressure faced by policy makers has dissipated, and the focus of monetary policy is rapidly shifting towards stabilizing employment.
