#NonfarmPayrollsComing
US Nonfarm Payrolls Report 📋
✨ Employment Growth Slowed in December 2025
The US Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) announced in its December 2025 Nonfarm Payrolls report, released on January 9, 2026, that 50,000 new jobs were added to the economy. This figure was significantly below economists' expectations (around 70,000) and also lower than the revised increase of 56,000 in November.
The unemployment rate slightly declined to 4.4% (November revised: 4.5%). Average hourly earnings increased by 0.3% monthly and 3.8% annually.
A total of 584,000 jobs were added throughout 2025; this represents an average monthly increase of 49,000, a significantly weaker performance compared to the 2 million growth in 2024. It was recorded as the loqwest annual employment growth since 2003 (excluding recession years). Sectoral Outlook:
Healthcare and social services, as well as food and beverage services, increased employment.
The retail sector experienced a loss of 25,000 jobs.
The report reinforced the Fed's cautious stance on interest rate policy, leading to 2025 being characterized as a year of "hiring slowdown." Markets received signals that growth is slowing and a possible "soft landing" is at risk.
