US employers added a strong 339,000 jobs in May as labor market stays durableThe nation’s employers stepped up their hiring in May, adding a robust 339,000 jobs, well above expectations and evidence of strength in an economy that the Federal Reserve is desperately trying to cool. The unemployment rate rose to 3.7%, from a five-decade low of 3.4% in April. The stronger hiring demonstrates the job market’s resilience after more than a year of rapid interest rate increases by the Fed.
