发帖数: 653 | 1 Job gains in the private sector far outpaced expectations in May, payroll
processor ADP said Thursday, adding to sentiment that the U.S. economy is
seeing a rebound in the second quarter from a sluggish first three months of
the year.
The private sector added 253,000 jobs last month, far outpacing Wall Street
expectations for a gain of 185,000 jobs. Business services, which includes
technical services, management and administrative and support services
positions, saw its strongest monthly increase since 2014, adding 88,000 jobs
for the month, boosting the overall service-providing sector to 205,000 net
new jobs.
“Job growth is rip-roaring,” Mark Zandi, chief economist of Moody’s
Analytics, said in a statement. “The current pace of job growth is nearly
three times the rate necessary to absorb growth in the labor force.
Increasingly, businesses’ number one challenge will be a shortage of labor.
”
Elsewhere, the goods-producing sector added 48,000 jobs as 37,000 new
construction jobs came online, while information services and leisure and
hospitality saw employment declines. | C*******3
