Job growth in 2025-2026 revised slightly lower in new data
The spring 2025 to spring 2026 period saw slightly fewer jobs than previously reported, keeping the labor market picture sluggish with unusually slow hiring.
MarketWatch reports that newly revised government data indicate the U.S. economy created slightly fewer jobs than earlier estimates during the span from spring 2025 to spring 2026.
According to the report, the change leaves intact an overall picture of a sluggish labor market, with hiring described as unusually slow.
The update suggests prior reporting overstated job creation somewhat, as the economy’s hiring pace did not end up as strong as first thought.
