U.S. added 64,000 jobs in November, with unemployment rate jumping to four-year high of 4.6%

What to know:

  • The U.S. added 64,000 jobs in November, while the unemployment rate rose to 4.6%.
  • As for October, employment fell by 105,000 versus 119,000 jobs added in September.
  • Both reports had been delayed to the U.S. government shutdown.

The U.S. labor market appears to have continued to soften in recent months as the government caught up to reports that had been delayed due to the shutdown in D.C.

Nonfarm payrolls rose by 64,000 in November, according to a Tuesday morning report from the Bureau of Labor Statistics. Economist estimates had been for jobs growth of 50,000.

The November unemployment rate rose to a four-year high of 4.6%, versus expectations of 4.4% and 4.4% in September.

For October, the economy saw jobs decline by 105,000 versus 119,000 added in September. The negative October print, however, was surely influenced by the government shutdown.

Taken together, the reports paint at least a modestly weaker picture of the employment situation than had been expected.

The price of bitcoin BTC$87,169.17 gave back some of its small overnight gains in the minutes following the report, dipping to $87,000. U.S. stock index futures swung from small gains to small losses and the 10-year Treasury yield was steady at 4.17%.

Ahead of the data, markets were pricing in a 75% probability that the Federal Reserve would hold rates steady at its January meeting. Those odds remained the same shortly following the release.

‘One Battle After Another’ Hits Peak Popularity With 97% Rotten Tomatoes Score

‘One Battle After Another’ Hits Peak Popularity With 97% Rotten Tomatoes Score

The post ‘One Battle After Another’ Hits Peak Popularity With 97% Rotten Tomatoes Score appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. ‘One Battle After Another’ is already being tipped for Oscar success Warner Bros It tends to take time to build interest in movies, even ones which seem to be sure-fire successes. In the era of social media, many movie fans want to read reviews from their counterparts rather than mainstream outlets. As a result, all but the biggest franchises usually only gain traction once they have been released. There are however exceptions to this rule and one is on the verge of release. Called One Battle After Another, it stars Leonardo DiCaprio as a washed-up delusional revolutionary who lives off grid with his teenage daughter. When one of his old enemies resurfaces and his daughter is abducted, the movie turns into a game of cat and mouse with car chases aplenty as well as the involvement of militias and mysterious organizations. The plot has a hint of 80s action extravaganza Commando but is actually loosely based on a book written by American author Thomas Pynchon. The movie hits a timely note as Pynchon is famous for sending up nefarious quasi-government organisations in his novels and director Paul Thomas Anderson continues that theme on screen. It has been seen as a political commentary and DiCaprio was a natural fit. His role combines the paranoia he portrayed in Howard Hughes biopic The Aviator with the comedic chases from his crime comedy Catch Me If You Can. DiCaprio is supported by an equally heavyweight cast led by Benicio del Toro as his accomplice and Sean Penn as his nemesis. One Battle After Another premiered in Los Angeles on September 8 and was met with universal acclaim. It has a critics’ rating of 97% on review aggregator Rotten Tomatoes but doesn’t yet have a single score from audiences as the film won’t be released…
