The job market is cooling, and that is probably no cause for alarm. Probably, but not definitely.

The economy added 130,000 jobs last month—fewer than the 150,000 economists expected. What is more, that payroll figure was inflated by more government hiring of workers for the 2020 census than most economists expected. The private sector added 96,000 jobs in August, versus 131,000 in July.
