Only 73,000 Jobs Added in July—Fed Rate Cut Incoming?

The U.S. economy added just 73,000 jobs in July—well below expectations—and the job numbers for May and June were sharply revised downward. The unemployment rate ticked up to 4.2%, while long-term unemployment reached its highest level in years. In this episode, Kathy Fettke breaks down what these weak labor market signals mean for investors, why markets are now betting on a Fed rate cut in September, and how political fallout—including the firing of the BLS Commissioner—is shaking confidence in the integrity of economic data. What does this mean for real estate, interest rates, and your investing strategy? Tune in to find out.
