Job Growth Exceeds Expectations for Third Month Running

They immediately went from claiming that Biden was running the hottest economy in history to forecasting -- or wishcasting -- a recession from the moment Trump was elected.


The U.S. added 139,000 jobs in May, marking the third straight month of stronger-than-expected growth. With wages up nearly 4% and all gains going to native-born Americans, the White House called it further proof of a "BOOMING" Trump-led economy.

Key Details:

Leisure and hospitality led with 48,000 new jobs, followed by transportation and warehousing (+5,800) and construction (+4,000).

Real average hourly earnings rose nearly 4% over the past year, far surpassing forecasts. Since Trump took office, real disposable personal income has risen at a 7.5% annualized pace.

According to the White House, 99.8% of all job gains under Trump have been in the private sector--a sharp contrast from the final two years of the Biden era, when one in four new jobs were government-funded.

Diving Deeper:

President Donald Trump's "America First Economic Agenda" is delivering, according to the White House's Friday statement celebrating May's stronger-than-expected jobs numbers.

"President Trump's America First Economic Agenda has created a BOOMING economy--jobs are up, unemployment is down, wages are increasing, and inflation is dead," said White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt. "More than 139,000 good jobs were added to the private sector in May, all accounted for by American-born workers."

The private sector has now accounted for nearly every job created since Trump took office in January. That includes four straight months of gains in construction, while wage growth for working Americans continues to beat expectations. Real average hourly earnings are up nearly 4% over the past year. The White House also emphasized that under Trump, real disposable personal income is growing at more than three times the pace of Biden's final year in office.

The report also marks a reversal from the trend seen under Biden, where government jobs made up a significant share of employment gains. Under Trump, 99.8% of jobs added have been in the private economy. Leavitt argued that this reflects a return to a market-driven labor force: "Americans should continue to trust in President Trump, who continues to beat expectations."

Council of Economic Advisers Chair Steve Miran noted on Fox News that over half a million jobs have been created since January--all going to native-born workers. "The President is succeeding in creating hundreds of thousands of jobs."

18 interesting observation on the private sector job growth. Smash and I like a local Mexican restaurant here in Huntsville. Today I noted that well over 80% of the staff was gringo, and non-Mexican adjacent. The opposite was true as short as two months ago, the last time we ate there. They also have a sign on the front door that they are "hiring".

We just had a big ICE bust of about 30 or 40 people last week. Bet that had something to do with the mostly gringo staff today.

28 why is the DOW up over 500 points? S&P and Nasdaq are both up too, damn looks like everything is up. WTH?

May employment report wasn't as bad as anticipated. when college graduates start trying to find a job, we will see the numbers go up. Should be an interesting summer.

the economy continues to be resilient. Everyone keeps predicting an imminent crash and it just ain't happening. Reminds me a lot of 2022-23 when everyone and their dog predicted a recession.

it is a legitimate concern that Trump will try to manipulate the data. However, it hasn't happened yet. There is plenty of time for the numbers to start showing the disastrous impacts of Trump's ridiculous economic decisions.

This is good news. We should be rooting for a strong economy no matter who is in charge. It's in our best interests as human beings. (Weird, no response to this one lol)

This is a set up. shithole just asked Powell for a full % rate deduction. I think unemployment is up and the economy is struggling.

The federal employees laid off-- thousands-- are probably still getting paid. Their unemployment will register in August, probably.

Q3 of 2022 saw the stock market lose 25% of its value.

We had two straight quarters of negative growth.

The Biden response was to print money and import the third world. This led to an economy that economists called great but the American people decided sucked and elected the party out of power.

Weird.

Posted by: Blonde Morticia
------------------------------

There is a plan for small town hospitals where by foreign Dr.s, qualified by American board, will do so many years in country hospital or medical facility, if they don't have a hospital (I was there), and time spent will allow citizenship.

There's too much money in Big City that even mediocre to poor quality (what do you call a man who graduated last of class in medical school?) can make more money that Littletown can afford.

That's something, also, to consider when choosing between mom & pop hospital and the borg.

Aside from Target occupying one, most appear to be standing vacant but still the grounds are marked off for more.

Locally, roofers & home improvement are having the time of their lives. Local, licensed contractors act as GCs, site managers and go to Delaware, South (New) Jersey to source their "old, white cargo van" workers. Counties don't care as long as they get their fees for permits.

Major home builders, 55+ facilities are also going crazy. Again, after framing, electrical by trades, in go the cargo van workers to roof, etc.

Putin's Puppet is the master distractor ... watch jobs numbers

will blame the Fed, because he wants Jerome to cut interest rates which will weaken the dollar.

The next day of course, D-Day started and as he was briefed on it, all Clark was heard to say was, “The sons of bitches! They wouldn’t let us have the headlines for the fall of Rome for even one day.”

Lol no. Hasn't the budget bill shown you how much Trump really cares about the deficit/debt? Lower interest rates mean businesses (and people) can borrow more money, hire, expand, etc. It does all sorts of positive stuff for the economy in the short-term, and we're moving into mid-term season, exactly when he wants good economic news.

Of course, it's ALWAYS 2 years to the next important election, so every politician is focused on the short-term economy, which is why the deficit and debt will never be addressed.

195 No surprise that the 3 sectors mentioned are all ones that were filled with illegals. We're seeing that when unemployment went up, it wasn't necessarily because the jobs went away, but because companies dumped legal workers for illegals.

Americans have no problems doing the jobs we were told that only illegals do.

I recently was in a small town in south Jersey, an area that n almost no illegal alien invasions because it's not worth it for them with NYC or Philly close by. Unsurprisingly everyone working at my hotel, the convenience store, and the fast food places were what you'd expect if you went anywhere in say the early 90s. All teens/young adults doing the entry level jobs, slightly older 20 year olds as the shift managers, and people older as managers or having the more cushy jobs.

Yep, and this is not just foreign-born employment of foreigners living in the USA. Foreign-born employment of remotely-working foreigners in Mexico, Canada and India skyrocketed since COVID.

Which is why it has been stupid for people pushing for more jobs to be remote, because that just allows companies to easily replace them with cheaper labor in foreign countries. As Stellantis and likely the rest of the auto industry has been doing since COVID.

Those 400 engineers Stellantis laid off last March were not laid off because they were not needed. They were all replaced with cheap (and incompetent) foreign labor who are remote-working.

Well, technically correct. May job numbers (139,000) are down from April (177,000), which was down from March (228,000).

"Way down" is a bit much though. 177,000 to 139,000 is a decrease of only 21.5%.

287 I'm curious how those job numbers are going to hold out against the rush to AI. Learn-2-Code folks are going to lose out their white-collar jobs if all the new AI tech can do as good of a job as they can.

Alternatively, would you pay $20 for an 8-hour day to a tier-1 hire in Bangalore, or have 24/7/365 uptime support, upscalable to handle multiple calls and contacts? The losses may be greater offshore, if the tech jobs themselves were originally offshored.

There's going to be upheavals. Some dead weight losses (like Pets.com), but some survive and become tomorrow's juggernaut (Amazon).

Side thought: how long before automated AI phone support is split into ethnicities, so that it responds back to you in accents and words native to Boston, Wisconsin, Caribbean, etc. And it chooses the language bank/facade to use based on the user's responses to some initial questions ("Please describe your problem").
