#USNonFarmPayrollReport
Payrolls increased by 64,000 in November after falling by 105,000 in October, according to delayed job figures.
Non-farm payroll growth totaled 64,000 seasonally adjusted jobs for the month, better than the Dow Jones estimate of 45,000 and above a sharp decline of 105,000 in October.
The unemployment rate rose to 4.6%, more than expected and its highest level since September 2021. A broader rate increased to 8.7%.
Establishment figures showed that most of the gains in November came from a known source: the health sector added 46,000 jobs, accounting for more than 70% of the total net increase.
Markets continue to estimate that it is unlikely there will be another interest rate cut in January.
Non-farm payrolls grew slightly more than expected in November, but fell in October, while unemployment reached its highest level in four years, the Bureau of Labor Statistics reported on Tuesday in figures delayed by the government shutdown.
