BusinessUS September Jobs Report Weakens Fed Rate Hike Expectations
The US added only 29,000 jobs in September, far below the expected 90,000, with unemployment rising to 4.2%. This weaker labor market suggests cooling momentum, reducing pressure on the Federal Reserve to raise interest rates at its October meeting. Economists describe the market as 'low hire, low fire,' indicating slower hiring but stable employment levels. The S&P 500 rose after the report but ended the week flat.
