Jobs report reveals 'uneven economy,' analyst says

Season 2025 Episode 350 | 5m 42s

The U.S. labor market is showing further signs of cooling, as the latest jobs report indicates that unemployment has risen to its highest level in four years. There was some good news as payrolls climbed by 64,000 new jobs last month. The delayed report was due to the six-week government shutdown. Geoff Bennett discussed the numbers with David Wessel of the Brookings Institution.
