Latest Updates

Private businesses in the US added 42K jobs in October 2025, rebounding after an upwardly revised 29K jobs cut in September, and above forecasts of 25K. Private employers added jobs in October for the first time since July, but the bounce wasn't broad-based. The service producing sector added 33K jobs, led by trade/transportation/utilities (47K), education/health services (26K) and financial activities (11K). In contrast, employers shed jobs in professional business services (-15K), information (-17K), and leisure and hospitality (-6K) for the third straight month. The goods producing sector added 9K jobs, namely natural resources/mining (7K) and construction (5K) while manufacturing lost 3K jobs. Meanwhile, annual pay growth was flat in October from the month prior, at 4.5% for job-stayers and 6.7% for job-changers. "Pay growth has been largely flat for more than a year, indicating that shifts in supply and demand are balanced", said Dr. Nela Richardson, chief economist, ADP.
