Biden-Harris economy dazzles with 254,000 jobs added in September, UE falls to 4.1% [View all]

https://www.bls.gov/news.release/empsit.nr0.htm

150,000 and 4.2% were expected.

July was revised up by 55,000, from +89,000 to +144,000, and the change for August was revised up by 17,000, from +142,000 to +159,000.

Wage growth still 4.0%, well in excess of inflation for the better part of a year and a half now.

Massive beat!!!
