The strength of job growth through fourth quarter/second quarter was unwarranted, but the six-month trend has already eased to 26k and would edge lower to 20k if the forecast is realized.
“We look for job growth to be led by the services sector and expect a partial rebound in private employment following a sharp contraction in July. Job growth of 15k should allow the unemployment rate to retrace lower to 5.6 percent while wage for permanent employees is edge higher to 4.7 percent y/y”, added TD Economics.
