US Private Employers Added 86,000 Jobs in October, Topping Forecasts in ADP Report
Read this in the Market Flux appPrivate sector employment in the United States rose by 86,000 in October, according to ADP's monthly payroll report released Wednesday, surpassing economist forecasts that ranged from 67,000 to 75,000 depending on the poll. The result follows September's 90,000 gain, marking a second consecutive month of solid hiring and signaling continued labor market resilience without signs of overheating.
The growth was heavily concentrated in services, which added 82,000 jobs, led by trade and transportation at 39,000. Goods-producing industries contributed only 4,000 jobs, and professional and business services shed 27,000 positions, pointing to uneven demand across sectors. Wage growth remained moderate, with base pay up 3.2% year over year, gross pay up 4.7%, and job-changers seeing gross pay rise 7.6%.
The ADP figures set expectations ahead of Friday's official government payrolls report, which will carry greater weight for Federal Reserve rate expectations, Treasury yields, and gold markets.
