Uncomfortably hot jobs report. 528K jobs added & unemployment rate falls to 3.5%.
What worries me re inflation is avg hourly earnings were up at a 5.8% ar in July. June revised to 5.4% (up from 3.8%).
The wage moderation we were all discussing last month was simply wrong data.

If you are planning a RIF, & haven’t executed yet, please see this as a lesson. RH did 9% in April, & and now 23%. 5-10% RIFs are “all of the pain, & none of the gain.” And are FREQUENTLY followed by 20-30% RIFs later. If you are going to do it, try do do it only once. https://t.co/WRTiCWpxyE
