US jobs report aligns with Warsh outlook
American data shows that job growth in August has returned to its normal pace, with the economy expected to add 55,000 jobs after an unexpected decline in July, while the unemployment rate remains steady at 4.1%. Federal Reserve Chairman, Jerome Powell, stated that the labor market is still strong, reinforcing the central bank's continued focus on price stability, especially given that inflation remains above the 2% target. The jobs report is the sixth in a series of economic data that will influence expectations for interest rate hikes in September. Current forecasts suggest more than a 50% chance of an interest rate increase based on Powell’s comments, with inflation indicators in the coming days being closely watched.
