US ADP

“No single industry dominated hiring this month, and big post-pandemic pay increases seem to be behind
us,” said Nela Richardson, chief economist, ADP. “In all, October’s numbers paint a well-rounded jobs
picture. And while the labor market has slowed, it’s still enough to support strong consumer spending.”

The US dollar softened after the data, though only modestly.
