A closely watched report released by the Labor Department on Thursday showed employment in the U.S. increased in June. They said non-farm payroll employment shot up by 147,000 jobs in June after jumping by 144,000 jobs in May. The stronger job growth partly reflected increases in state government and healthcare employment, which helped to offset the continued loss of government jobs. The report also said the unemployment rate decreased to 4.1% in June from 4.2% in May.

The U.K. service sector posted its fastest growth in ten months in June, underpinned by a renewed improvement in order books. The service business activity index climbed to 52.8 in June from 50.9 in the previous month. This was the highest score since August. The combined output of the manufacturing and service sectors registered its fastest growth since September 2024. The composite output index improved to 52.0 from 50.3 a month ago.
The rebound in the service sector was fueled by a turnaround in domestic business and consumer spending. However, some service companies commented on growth headwinds from subdued U.K. economic conditions, the impact of U.S. tariffs, and adverse geopolitical factors. New orders received by service providers were the strongest since November 2024. There was greater demand in domestic markets, while export sales declined for the third straight month.
Employment decreased for the ninth consecutive month in June. The rate of job shedding was slightly faster than in May. Backlogs of work decreased in each month since June 2023, marking the longest continuous period for more than 15 years.
Cost inflation in the service sector eased to its lowest in six months. Due to weaker cost inflation and intense competition for new work, charged inflation showed another slowdown.

China's service activity expanded at the slowest pace in nine months in June on falling export business. The Caixin services PMI registered 50.6 in June, down from 51.1 in May. The score remained above the 50.0 threshold for the thirtieth consecutive month. The moderation in new business growth was the major reason for the softer rise in services activity. Export business decreased at the fastest pace since December 2022.
Service providers lowered their staffing levels due to the slowdown in new order growth. The fall in employment contributed to a build-up of outstanding work in June. Regarding prices, average input costs remained on an upward trend due to higher raw material and fuel costs. Companies continued to cut their output charges due to intense market competition. Overall, the private sector returned to expansion in June after falling in the prior month amid a fresh increase in factory output. The composite output index posted above the 50.0 no-change threshold at 51.3 in June, up from 49.6 in May. 07/03/2025 - 02:48:00 (RTTNews)
