The ADP National Employment Report, a measure of private employment in the U.S., showed private payrolls shed 32,000 jobs last month. That “risk management” cut signaled a shift to bolster labor markets despite the pace of inflation remaining well above the Fed’s stated 2% target. The pace of future easing depends on month-to-month changes in labor markets and consumer prices. The 33,000 jobs added in the education and health services sector could not offset a rout across the services sector. By sector, leisure and hospitality lost 19,000 jobs, professional and business services lost 13,000 jobs, financial services lost 9,000 jobs and trade, transportation and utilities lost 7,000 jobs, amid other losses.
