The Inside Economics team welcomes Lisa Simon, Chief Economist at Revelio Labs, for an unusual jobs Friday podcast as the ongoing government shutdown prevented the release of the September employment report. Lisa details the new public labor statistics data that Revelio Labs began publishing recently in the wake of turmoil at the Bureau of Labor Statistics. The team discusses how private data sources can help fill in the gaps left by the temporary absence of government data and also dissects the current state of the labor market.Guest: Lisa Simon – Chief Economics, Revelio LabsFor more about Lisa Simon, click here: https://www.reveliolabs.com/author/lisa-k-simon/Explore the risks and realities shaping the economy in our new webinar, now streaming for free.U.S. Economic Outlook: Under Unprecedented UncertaintyWatch here: https://events.moodys.com/mc68453-wbn-2025-mau25777-us-macro-outlook-precipice-recession?mkt_tok=OT…Hosts: Mark Zandi – Chief Economist, Moody's Analytics, Cris deRitis – Deputy Chief Economist, Moody's Analytics, and Marisa DiNatale – Senior Director - Head of Global Forecasting, Moody's Analytics Questions or Comments, please email us at helpeconomy@moodys.com.

Unemployment remains relatively low, but the labor market is slowing down. Private payroll company ADP estimates the private sector lost 32,000 jobs last month. Hiring has slowed, and it's taking longer for jobseekers to find work. And where there are people with anxiety and fear, there are scammers to prey on them. The Federal Trade Commission says reports of job scams tripled over the past four years. But first, why the Trump administration is sending memos to universities and what Democrats are demanding to reopen the government.
This week on Payne Points of Wealth, Bob, Ryan, Chris, and Courtney dive into the evolving dynamics of the U.S. labor market. Despite predictions of a slowdown, companies are hesitant to lay off workers—even as hiring remains sluggish. Is this a sign of economic weakness, or are deeper demographic shifts like an aging population and reduced immigration reshaping the workforce? We also unpack Wall Street's push to make alternative investments more accessible to everyday investors—a movement often branded as “democratization.” While financial firms tout the benefits of private equity and other alternatives, few are talking about the risks. In fact, as retail investors are being encouraged to buy in, institutional giants are quietly heading for the exits. Yale's $41.4 billion endowment is unwinding nearly $3 billion in alternative holdings. Meanwhile, private credit—a market that barely existed a decade ago—is surging toward $2 trillion. Firms like Apollo and Blackstone are now lending directly to businesses, consumers, and real estate investors, giving regular investors unprecedented access. But is this truly a golden opportunity, or a hidden risk to your retirement? We break down the opaque, illiquid nature of these investments and what they could mean for your long-term financial future. Tune in for our take on what's really happening in the job market and whether Wall Street's latest pitch is worth your hard-earned dollars.

Jordan Shapiro and Kate Duchene take on the labor market. Kate discusses the “stagnancy” and “cautious behavior” in hiring, arguing we're in a “wait and see” pattern. She also looks at the pattern of companies outsourcing labor to contractors or freelance. Jordan examines the latest ADP report, highlighting the difference between businesses with less than 50 employees and more than 50. Small firms are taking the brunt of uncertainty right now, he thinks, which is an issue because they are the ones driving the economy.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Subscribe to the Market Minute newsletter - https://schwabnetwork.com/subscribeDownload the iOS app - https://apps.apple.com/us/app/schwab-network/id1460719185Download the Amazon Fire Tv App - https://www.amazon.com/TD-Ameritrade-Network/dp/B07KRD76C7Watch on Sling - https://watch.sling.com/1/asset/191928615bd8d47686f94682aefaa007/watchWatch on Vizio - https://www.vizio.com/en/watchfreeplus-exploreWatch on DistroTV - https://www.distro.tv/live/schwab-network/Follow us on X – / schwabnetwork Follow us on Facebook – / schwabnetwork Follow us on LinkedIn - / schwab-network About Schwab Network - https://schwabnetwork.com/about
Hours into the first government shutdown in over six years, Punchbowl News co-founder Jake Sherman reports on the path forward for both sides of the aisle. The Bureau of Labor Statistics will not release its monthly employment report amid the shutdown, sending economists and investors elsewhere for labor market data. CNBC's Steve Liesman shares September's ADP National Employment Report, and ADP's chief economist Nela Richardson explains how her metrics–along with other datasets–help paint a picture of the labor market. Richardson's takeaway: no matter the metric, hiring momentum has slowed. Plus, Berkshire Hathaway is reportedly exploring a purchase of Occidental Petroleum's petrochemical business, FTC is suing Redfin and Zillow over antitrust concerns, and Walmart is eliminating artificial dyes in its store brand food products.

Noah Yosif discusses his expectations for the August JOLTS report, which may be the last data point on the job market before a potential government shutdown. He believes job openings, hires, and quits will likely remain flat, as employers continue to take a wait-and-see approach due to uncertainty over interest rates and the economy. Noah notes that the Federal Reserve's recent rate cut may not have had time to filter through the economy yet, and even without the jobs report on Friday, the labor market may continue in a state of limbo. Meanwhile, Yosif adds that the ADP numbers may carry more weight this week, given the private sector's significant contribution to job growth.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Subscribe to the Market Minute newsletter - https://schwabnetwork.com/subscribeDownload the iOS app - https://apps.apple.com/us/app/schwab-network/id1460719185Download the Amazon Fire Tv App - https://www.amazon.com/TD-Ameritrade-Network/dp/B07KRD76C7Watch on Sling - https://watch.sling.com/1/asset/191928615bd8d47686f94682aefaa007/watchWatch on Vizio - https://www.vizio.com/en/watchfreeplus-exploreWatch on DistroTV - https://www.distro.tv/live/schwab-network/Follow us on X – / schwabnetwork Follow us on Facebook – / schwabnetwork Follow us on LinkedIn - / schwab-network About Schwab Network - https://schwabnetwork.com/about

Eddie Yoon sees a “light at the end of the tunnel” for consumer sentiment. He argues that B2B investment, which has largely been in AI rather than traditional jobs and wages, will begin to pay off in 2026 and result in higher wages and more entrepreneurship. He believes AI is a rising tide that will lift all boats and completely transform the workplace, with returns coming quickly.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.

Should the US put a price on H-1B visas, or would that block the flow of new talent? Are AI coding agents actually making teams way more productive, or is it just hype? And in the AI platform shift, will the big winners be incumbents or new AI-native startups?Erik Torenberg is joined by Box co-founder and CEO Aaron Levie, a16z board partner Steven Sinofsky, and a16z general partner Martin Casado to debate the biggest questions in tech. They unpack pricing vs lottery for H-1Bs and what we're actually optimizing for, why Box now ships a third of its code from AI, the shift from writing to reviewing code, and why bottom-up personal AI tools succeed where top-down “AI pilots” struggle.

Jacob Shapiro reconnects with Chase Taylor (of Pinecone Macro) for a wide-ranging conversation on U.S. competitiveness. The two dig into why electricity costs, labor shortages, and weak industrial policy matter far more than endless chatter about tariffs or rate cuts. They trade scenarios on how soaring power demand, grid fragility, and demographic decline could shape America's future against China. Along the way, they touch on robots, nearshoring to Mexico, farm policy, and why simple, obvious analysis is often the most powerful--Timestamps:(00:00) - Introduction(00:43) - Contrarian Views on US Macroeconomics(02:51) - Competitiveness and Power Prices(08:10) - Energy Policy and Grid Reliability(18:31) - Labor Market and Automation Challenges(22:31) - Global Competitiveness and Future Outlook(35:45) - Global Capital Flows and Economic Risks(38:05) - The Role of Stable Coins and Agriculture Insights(38:54) - Challenges and Opportunities in Agriculture(43:50) - Bitcoin and Digital Assets Discussion(51:19) - Investment Strategies and Market Outlook(56:23) - Policy Impacts and Future Concerns--Referenced in the Show:https://www.pineconemacro.com/--Jacob Shapiro Site: jacobshapiro.comJacob Shapiro LinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/jacob-l-s-a9337416Jacob Twitter: x.com/JacobShapJacob Shapiro Substack: jashap.substack.com/subscribe --The Jacob Shapiro Show is produced and edited by Audiographies LLC.

The stock market is back in party mode since zooming back to all-time highs in the wake of the April Liberation Day lows.And the Fed just cut its policy rate for the first time this year, and guided that more cuts likely lie ahead.So, can the bulls remain in charge and keep powering asset prices higher into 2026?Or are the many potential risks, not the least of which is a slowing economy, more likely to bring an end to the party?To discuss, we have the good fortune to welcome George Gammon to the program.

The Federal Reserve delivered its first rate cut since last November, reducing the target range to 4–4.25% as weakening labor data outweighed inflation concerns. Chair Powell framed the move as a “risk management cut” and an adjustment toward neutral, while politics loomed large with Trump-aligned voices pushing for deeper cuts. Markets and analysts were left uncertain about whether this is the start of an easing cycle or simply a preemptive move in a bifurcated economy driven by AI investment on one side and labor market softness on the other.
Kathy Jones and Liz Ann Sonders analyze the market reactions to this week's quarter-point Fed rate cut. They also look at the implications of the lower rate for the broader market, the particular dynamics of the Federal Reserve's economic projections, and the current state of the labor market. Then, Freya Beamish, chief economist for TS Lombard, joins Liz Ann in a discussion focused on tariffs and labor market conditions. She emphasizes the complexities of the labor market, particularly in relation to immigration and job creation. The discussion also touches on the legal aspects of tariffs and the potential reactions from the Federal Reserve. Beamish concludes with an optimistic outlook on productivity growth and the influence of AI on the economy.Finally, Kathy and Liz Ann discuss which key economic data to watch in the coming weeks.You can keep up with Freya Beamish and follow her podcast Perkins Vs Beamish.On Investing is an original podcast from Charles Schwab.

Phil Rosen of Opening Bell Daily returns to Inside the ICE House to break down the Fed's expected rate cut and its broader economic impact. He highlights a 911,000-job downward revision as a warning sign for the labor market and explains why Powell's messaging will be closely watched. Despite soft jobs data, Phil points to strong earnings and AI momentum as key supports for markets. Looking ahead, he cautions that while rate cuts may offer short-term relief, stabilizing the labor market remains the bigger challenge.
Nonprofit hiring is not matching the national headlines, says Katie Warnock, founder and president of Staffing Boutique. While recent reports suggest softer job numbers and higher unemployment, she's seeing the opposite on the ground: “We had a really slow two quarters, and we've been so busy basically since after July 4th weekend.” Executive searches are surging, selective contract roles are back, and LinkedIn is “popping” with real openings—especially across development and campaign management.The cost of churn remains steep. Katie points to a national onboarding average around $4,100—often higher in New York—once you factor technology, training, time from other staff, and HR overhead. Healthcare pressure is reshaping behavior, too: some nonprofits keep long-term temps on agency payroll to avoid absorbing benefits costs. That creates short-term budget relief but risks long-term stability.Compensation is a persistent constraint. Corporate teams can flex salaries across a department; nonprofits live inside board-approved budgets for one to three fiscal years. As a result, Katie urges leaders to compete with something other than base pay: flexible work design, professional development, wellness perks, and individualized schedules. “You do not have a recruitment plan unless you have a retention plan,” she says. That retention plan should be tailored—“a buffet” of options aligned to what your own people actually want.Flexibility is the top request. Remote or hybrid schedules remain a decisive factor for candidates (Katie notes that roughly a third of responses to a 1,000-person outreach said “I want a remote job”). Some organizations are testing a 9/80-style calendar to give every other Friday off. Others fund upskilling, reimburse gym memberships, expand fertility benefits, or simply allow staggered start/stop times to match how people work best.Still, leaders should balance flexibility with culture. Katie acknowledges that fully remote teams can lose the informal learning and creative lift that happens before and after in-person meetings. Board members are noticing the productivity difference. Her view: know your workforce, listen through regular check-ins (not just exit interviews), and publish options everyone can access—then let staff choose what fits their season of life.Finally, plan for burnout—especially in the C-suite where many leaders delayed retirement through COVID and are now exhausted. Encourage time off, normalize boundaries, and recognize that Q4's fundraising sprint amplifies strain. The bottom line: retention is strategy. Build it intentionally, budget for reality, and give your people modern ways to do their best work.Find us Live daily on YouTube!Find us Live daily on LinkedIn!Find us Live daily on X: @Nonprofit_ShowOur national co-hosts and amazing guests discuss management, money and missions of nonprofits! 12:30pm ET 11:30am CT 10:30am MT 9:30am PTSend us your ideas for Show Guests or Topics: HelpDesk@AmericanNonprofitAcademy.comVisit us on the web:The Nonprofit Show
Dive deep with the Market Mondays crew as they break down the alarming state of the US labor market in this thought-provoking clip! Rashad Bilal, Ian Dunlap, and Troy Millings address the latest reports showing a drastic slowdown—only 22,000 jobs added in August, unemployment on the rise, and for the first time since 2021, more Americans are out of work than there are jobs available.The hosts discuss the critical macro issues behind these numbers, including the mismanagement of US debt, the government's new venture capitalist approach, and how artificial intelligence is quickly replacing traditional jobs. What's even more disturbing? Job numbers are routinely being revised downward by as much as 100,000–125,000 jobs, painting an even worse picture for the future.Entrepreneurship is no longer optional—it's essential. With the gig economy rising and traditional jobs less available, finding alternative sources of income has become a necessity. The hosts delve into why commission-based work, investing, and side hustles are now crucial to survival, especially as Black Americans and women face even higher unemployment rates.Plus, they explore the impact of falling interest rates, how tech companies are poised to benefit, and why the economic gap is widening. It's a tale of two economies: if you make $200k+, it's a boom cycle; under $100k, it's a recession. This is an essential watch for anyone trying to understand what's really happening in today's new economic reality.Key Topics Covered:US labor market stats: job creation vs. unemployment trends Government debt and the shift to venture investing AI's impact on employment and the future of work The gig economy and alternative streams of income Racial and gender unemployment disparities Effects of changing interest rates on different industries Why planning for the next decade is more crucial than everDon't miss this honest, data-driven conversation—for entrepreneurs, employees, and investors alike.

From Wall Street to Main Street, the latest on the markets and what it means for your money. Updated regularly on weekdays, featuring CNBC expert analysis and sound from top business newsmakers. Anchored by CNBC's Jessica Ettinger.
Jessica Kriegel expects the labor market to worsen over the next two months. She thinks big companies have “overhired” and are laying off those workers as they wait to see if AI can replace a larger percentage of jobs. She notes that losses in retail, leisure and hospitality reflect a consumer spending pullback. She discusses how tariffs and potential rate cuts could affect the economy, and how the government can use them. “We are now in unknown territory… [we need] that muscle of adaptability.”======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.

Jeff Schulze warns of the labor market signaling a potential economic downturn after the latest Jobless Claims report. “It's been a tough job environment,” he says, but thinks deregulation, the ‘Big Beautiful Bill', and Fed rate cuts will buoy economic momentum next year. He thinks we need to “ratchet down our expectations” about job growth, though that “doesn't mean a weak economy overall.” Jeff also looks at AI in the labor market and potential productivity growth.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.

Ben Casselman, chief economics correspondent for The New York Times, talks about the adjustments to hiring numbers showing 911,000 fewer jobs were created in the 12 months before March 2025, as listeners share their real-world job search stories.
This week on the Trading Justice Podcast, the brothers break down the weakest jobs report since 2020 and what it means for the market. With payrolls adding just +22,000 in August vs. +75,000 expected, revisions going negative, and confidence slipping, the labor market is flashing real warning signs. We cover the Top 5 Reasons Corporations Aren't Hiring — from high rates and weak demand to the rise of AI — and ask the hard questions: - Is AI the real driver behind the hiring freeze? - What does this mean for Fed policy and future rate cuts? - Can the White House and Fed restore confidence before things worsen? - In Stock It or Drop It, we break down Robinhood, AppLovin, Chewy, Broadcom, Salesforce, Alphabet, UNH, and Starbucks. Winners, losers, and what setups we're watching. Finally, in Coaches Corner, we tackle pressing mindset and career questions — from AI layoffs to pushing through fear, to whether rate cuts now spell opportunity or recession.
Apparently, your hosts can be included there. Big lottery weekend, upcoming rate cuts, a weak labor market and the impact of tariffs on the post office. Plus private equity has a marketing problem.
Charles says the folks who are assuming the worst of tariffs are only "letting Rome burn." Meanwhile, on Tuesday the Bureau of Labor Statistics revised down job growth by 911,000, signaling a weaker labor market. Allspring Global Investments Head of Equities Ann Miletti joins Charles to break down why the impacts of tariffs may be overblown, what the Fed will do about the job growth revisions, and where to find the good value in the market right now.

Steve Dennis and Michael LeBlancs analyze the week's most impactful retail developments: a U.S. appeals-court ruling that may require massive Trump era tariff refunds new India duties; fast-moving shifts in de minimis thresholds; and mounting pressure on global supply chains, small businesses, and retailers alike. They analyze how these disruptions will disrupt importers like Tapestry and Lululemon, and shift the retail earnings divide—even as consumer confidence wavers and labor issues—like ICE raids—further muddy the waters.In the featured interview with two visionary luxury executives: Amit Kaswani, Chief Omnichannel Officer at Chalhoub Group, and Stacie Henderson Capece Minutolo, Chief Marketing Officer Americas at Tod's Group.

This is a very special episode of the PolicyViz Podcast. I'm joined by Erica Groshen, former Commissioner of the Bureau of Labor Statistics to talk about the latest jobs report and what the numbers really mean for the state of the economy, including why revisions are an essential part of getting the data right. Dr. Groshen explains how the BLS produces its trusted statistics, the commissioner's role, and what signals she watches for to spot potential recessions. We also discuss the importance of protecting federal statistical agencies, ensuring trust in their data, and what the future might hold for the BLS. It's a fascinating conversation that connects technical detail with big-picture implications.Keywords: data, data visualization, fPolicyViz Podcast, Erica Groshen, Bureau of Labor Statistics, BLS, jobs report, labor market, economic data, employment situation, job growth, job losses, unemployment rate, data revisions, economic indicators, recession signals, federal statistics, data trust, labor economicsSubscribe to the PolicyViz Podcast wherever you get your podcasts.Become a patron of the PolicyViz Podcast for as little as a buck a monthCheck out the BLS website for more data!Follow me on Instagram, LinkedIn, Substack, Twitter, Website, YouTubeEmail: jon@policyviz.com
