#USJobsData The latest US jobs data shows a mixed bag. The unemployment rate rose to 4.6% in November, the highest in four years, with 64,000 jobs added, beating expectations of 50,000. However, October's numbers were revised down to a loss of 105,000 jobs, largely due to federal government cost-cutting measures.

*Key Highlights:*

- *Job Gains*: Healthcare (46,000), Construction (28,000), and Social Assistance (18,000)

- *Job Losses*: Transportation and Warehousing (18,000), Federal Government (6,000)

- *Unemployment Rate*: 4.6% in November, up from 4.4% in September

The report indicates a gradually weakening labor market, with slowing job growth and rising unemployment. This might influence the Federal Reserve's decision on future interest rate adjustments ¹ ².
