Climb on the report. The u. S. Economy added 222,000 the in 174,000 expected. The Unemployment Rate tick ed a little higher to 4. 4 but only because more people joined the workforce. Even though jobs appear plentiful, there is still one thing missing. Pay raises. Hampton pearson has more on the nations employment p picture. Job growth was widespread and back on track in june. The hiring included 187,000 private sector jobs as well as big upward revisions for april and may. The Unemployment Rate ticked up slightly to 4. 4 because more americans began looking for work, but not all got hired. Economists see a job market thats still expanding. I see an economy that is solidly performing month after month in a very stabi agree the run. But wage growth remains stagnant. Hourly pay up just 2. 5 over the last 12 months at 26 an hour. Meanwhile, job openings topped 6 million in may, an all time high. It appeared the influx in job seekers last month off set pressures to raise wages. Economists say when it comes to wages, employers have most of the leverage. Workers are very much alone in this economy. The Union Movement has decimated the private sector. Negotiating one worker. Hiring was broadbased with health care leading the way adding 37,000 new workers. Another 36,000 found jobs at restaurants and hotels. Government added an unusually high 35,000 new employees, almost all of them at the local level. And for the First Time Since january, the Retail Sector added jobs. 8,000 new hires. For the moment, its the best of both worlds for the Federal Reserve. I think it eliminates a lot of the recession discussions some were percolating in the last month and solidifies Market Expectations on the fed. Those same leaning economists say its not the fed, but the fate of things like tax reform, health care and Infrastructure Spending here on capitol hill that are the real keys to longer Term Economic growth. For nightly Business Report, im Hampton Pearson in washington. Mark zani has more on the labor market and economy. Hes the chief economist at moodys. Welcome back. Thanks, sue. As he mentioned and i think you would adpree, there was strong and broadbased job creation. But we had upward revisions for previous reports, which seems impressive. Very solid report. Average monthly job growth so far this year is 180,000 jobs. Thats just about the same rate of job growth we got last year in 2016. So, the job market cometh and nothing is changing that. Its humming along here. Why are there still so many unfill ed jobs . Well, were in a record f unfilled jobs, tyler. Businesses cant find qualified workers. We have a 4. 4 Unemployment Rate. Underemployment has declined to below 9 . These are consistent with an economy at full employment. So we need more we do. The only way to solve this need, m is businesses are the only solution at least in the foreseeable future is to allow for more foreign immigration, which that doesnt stay with the current political environment, but really the only way. Without that, given the retiring w Participation Rate in the past six months to a year or so, its been worrisome, low, is it improving . Its stable. So, it hasnt moved for three or four years. Its just under 63 . You know, actually quite an achievement given that the baby boomers, 50s, 60s and 70s, is retiring. The force would fall two or three cents, but the fact its stable means the fact were , but now are er workers who finding jobs that are suitable and are stepping back in. So the Participation Rate is stable. I dont view that as an issue. You sort of characterize the labor market as tight and likely to get tighter. That would suggest that gains would get greater. What is stalling them and do you expect growth to accelerate . Yeah, i do. First point. Wage growth is accelerating. The average hourly rate that we look at in this report is probably the worst measure to look at. Some of the better measures that account for the composition workforce sh a clear acceleration. Now, its slow, its slow r than it has been, but it is accelerating. But i think we should expect wage growth to be less than it has been historically for two reasons. One, inflectiation is lower. Secondly, underlying productivity growth is slower than it has been historically and wage growth and productivity growth need to go hand in hand. So i think the normalized level of wage growth Going Forward will be lower than we sl v experienced. Have a great weekend. Thanks again for joining us. You, too.

Segment of the market we call them the fang 2. 0, facebook, amazon, netflix, google and now, tesla, too, have really seen a surge in their share prices and valuation, but no corresponding surge in their profitability and that creates a very interesting disconnect. It means when they fail to produce or have any negative input whatsoever, even small disappointments like weve seen in tesla, we could see pulls the rug out. Exactly. It does. The names you have for us tonight are large companies. But theyre basically in a better valuation than their peers. And citi is your first pick. Why do you like it . I like citigroup a lot.
