US Labor Market Stumbles: July Adds Just 73K Jobs as May-June Reports Get Brutal Downward Revisions

US labor market adds 73,000 jobs in July while May, June reports see 'larger than normal' downward revisions

Another month, another reality check—the jobs machine isn’t firing on all cylinders.

July’s lukewarm 73K payrolls landed with a thud, but the real kicker? The ‘larger than normal’ downward revisions for May and June. Someone’s erasing their optimistic pencil marks.

Wall Street’s coping mechanism: Blame seasonals, blame algorithms, blame the BLS intern—just don’t blame the Fed for still eyeing rate cuts like a dehydrated trader stares at a Bloomberg terminal.

Funny how ‘transitory’ keeps getting revised… just like those crypto price targets from 2021.
