Private payrolls declined in September by 32,000 in key ADP report coming amid shutdown data blackout

Private payrolls saw their biggest decline in two-and-a-half years during September, a further sign of labor market weakening that compounds the data blackout accompanying the U.S. government shutdown.

Companies shed a seasonally adjusted 32,000 jobs during the month, the biggest slide since March 2023, payrolls processing firm ADP reported Wednesday. Economists surveyed by Dow Jones had been looking for an increase of 45,000. In addition to the drop in September, the August payrolls number was revised to a loss of 3,000 from an initially reported increase of 54,000.

The report comes as the funding impasse in Washington, D.C. has led to the first government closure since late 2018 into early 2019. Failing a deal over the next two days, the Bureau of Labor Statistics’ nonfarm payrolls report for September will not be released, nor will the Labor Department put out the weekly jobless claims count on Thursday. The last time the BLS payrolls report was delayed was in 2013.

Federal Reserve officials count on the payrolls releases as they make decisions on interest rates. The Fed next meets Oct. 28-29, meaning there won’t be another payrolls report before then. ADP’s count, then, takes on added significance as markets widely expect the central bank to cut another quarter points off its key borrowing rate.

We've got more 80's forecast a week out in Chicago. Climate change is about weather extremes, more of them more often.

Sorry you don't get that, but then you're a science illiterate, an economic illiterate and a moral imbecile.

You are a stupid ass fuck, there is nothing wrong with fossil fuels if they are done responsibly. In the early 80's my father and I would drive down freeway 2 going south from La Crescenta, heading towards Glendale and from Glendale it's only 10 miles to Downtown Los Angeles, not only we couldn't see the skyscrapers in Downtown Los Angeles, we couldn't even see the homes tucked in the mountains of Glendale nor we could see the buildings on Brand Blvd, which was only 2 miles away because of smog, all thanks to Clinton and Gore, now not only I can see the Glendale, from the same freeway, I can see Downtown Los Angeles like a postcard with blue skies. Even making babies is detrimental to the earth, at the rate the population is growing the earth will not sustain itself the next 100 years if we are lucky.

Lime Time, Again, wrong. Gas prices are up under Trump ..

You have mislead people on that more than once. Do it again now, and it will be a deliberate lie by you.

"I voted for a President due to merit.
Stock market hitting all time highs.
401ks hitting all time highs.
Gasoline prices again hitting near record 12 week lows.
No global warming going on here. We have 40 degrees in Oct. Freezing. All that climate
change shit has been debunked. Common sense policies prevail."

Get your head out of Trump's ass, you asshole.

The stock market would be up irregardless of who was president, except it wouldn't be in such a danger of being a bubble situation if Trump was not president .. https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2025/oct/01/leading-uk-tech-investor-warns-of-disconcerting-signs-of-ai-stock-bubble .

Yes it's good for 401ks in the short term, yet you and others who still support him get scraps (obviously enough for you because you appear to be as seamlessly selfish as he is) but you applaud a situation which is pushing an inequality problem .. https://investorshub.advfn.com/boards/read_msg.aspx?message_id=176645490 , a harbinger of more serious societal problems in future.

Trump Admin Responds to Milei’s Failed Libertarian Policies With a US Taxpayer Bailout for Argentina
[...]In what he described as an effort to tame Argentina’s runaway inflation, Milei, who has described himself .. https://www.forbes.com/sites/afontevecchia/2024/03/30/javier-milei-first-anarcho-capitalist-president-of-argentina-a-mix-of-amateurism-and-strategy/ .. as an “anarcho capitalist,” has spent the time since he was elected president in 2023 instituting a brutal regime of what has been referred to as economic “shock therapy.”
P - His agenda .. https://www.ap.org/news-highlights/spotlights/2024/argentinas-milei-marks-one-year-in-office-heres-how-his-shock-measures-are-reshaping-the-economy/ .. has centered on taking a “chainsaw” to government institutions and worker protections: slashing energy and transportation subsidies, halting public infrastructure projects, declaring war on labor unions, freezing wage and pension increases, and firing tens of thousands of government employees.
[Insert: Milei is a cookie cutter Trumpite.]
The result was predictable: By February 2025, the country had begun to rapidly deindustrialize, unemployment was soaring, and more than half of Argentinians lived in poverty.
P - However, this did not stop Trump from modeling his economic agenda, often explicitly, after Milei’s—most notably through the exploits of the chainsaw-brandishing billionaire Elon Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), which he used to lay waste to the administrative state. Trump, meanwhile, has signed legislation gutting social services like Medicaid and food assistance, busted public unions, and canceled numerous green energy and infrastructure contracts.
[OOps, ok, or Trump is a cookie cutter Mileiite. Looks Yarvin
et al got Milei in before Trump's 2nd term.]
The result has likewise been a slump in economic activity, culminating in unemployment
numbers critics say the administration has been desperate to bury.

Trump's health policies may have killed more than a million Americans
[...] “Americans’ health was deteriorating even as our economy was booming,” says Dr Steffie Woolhandler, who co-chairs the Commission with Dr David U. Himmelstein, and who both serve as Distinguished Professors at the City University of New York at Hunter College and Lecturers in Medicine at Harvard. “This unprecedented decoupling of health from national wealth signals that our society is sick. While the wealthy have thrived, most Americans have lost ground, both economically and medically. The Biden administration must reboot democracy and implement the progressive social and health policies needed to put the country on the road to better health.” [2]
President Trump exploited chronic ill health and deeply entrenched inequalities

And you continue to post false assertions without supportive links. You don't respect rules designed to better a place any more than you meritless president does. You are obviously as ignorantly selfish as he is.

I suggest if you continue parading your ignorance here in such an arrogant fashion (without providing supportive links as required), then readers here will be freed of your bullshit before long. Then you will be free to whine about your stupid false freedom of speech position on other boards.
