The US economy added 147,000 jobs in June, a sign of continuing strength in the labor market amid Donald Trump’s trade war.
The number of jobs added surpassed expectations, as economists largely anticipated a drop in openings. Instead, 3,000 more jobs were added in June compared with May, according to new job figures from the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS). The unemployment rate actually decreased to 4.1%, down from 4.2% in May.
