Private-sector employment picks up in June: ADP

Gain of 172,000 jobs suggests weak May reading may be ‘outlier’

By Greg Robb
Senior economics reporter

WASHINGTON (MarketWatch)—Private-sector employment picked up a bit in June, suggesting the weak May nonfarm-payroll report may be an anomaly, Automatic Data Processing Inc. reported Thursday.

ADP reported that 172,000 private-sector jobs were added in June, above economists expectations for a gain of 150,000 jobs. ... ADP also revised May’s gain to 168,000 from the original estimate of 173,000.

Analysts use ADP’s data to get a feeling for the Labor Department’s employment report, which will be released Friday and covers government jobs in addition to the private sector.

Last month, the ADP sent a false signal. The government reported a dismal 38,000 jobs in May, which was “a game-changer” for the Federal Reserve, according to Econoday.

Sputtering Jobs Market Risks Damping U.S. Economic Expansion

The U.S. economy looks to be in danger of losing its main pillar as employers throttled back hiring in May to the lowest level in almost six years.

The slowdown -- payrolls rose by 38,000 after a downwardly revised 123,000 in April -- raised questions about the ability of consumers to keep spending at a good clip. It also cast doubts on Federal Reserve policy makers’ intentions to raise interest rates soon.
