原文标题： Hiring falters in December as payrolls rise only 199,000, though the unemployment fell to 3.9% 原文连结：http://t.ly/mNNE CNBC 发布时间：2022/01/07 原文内容： The U.S. economy added far fewer jobs than expected in December just as the nation was grappling with a massive surge in Covid cases, the Labor Department said Friday. Nonfarm payrolls grew by 199,000, while the unemployment rate fell to 3.9%, according to Bureau of Labor Statistics data. That compared to the Dow Jones estimate of 422,000 for the payrolls number and 4.1% for the unemployment rate. Job creation was highest in leisure and hospitality, a key recovery sector, which added 53,000. Professional and business services contributed 43,000 while manufacturing added 26,000. The unemployment rate fell to a fresh pandemic-era low and near the 50-year low of 3.5% in February 2020. That decline came even though the labor force participation rate was unchanged at 61.9%. A more encompassing measure of unemployment that includes discouraged workers and those holding part0time jobs for economic reasons slid to 7.3%, down 0.4 percentage points. Average hourly earnings rose more than expected as the U.S. sees its fastest inflation pace in nearly 40 years. Wages rose 0.6% for the month and were up 4.7% year over year. The numbers come at a crossroads for the U.S. economy as more than half a million Covid cases per day, many related to the omicron variant, threaten to stall an economic recovery that looks to accelerate in 2022. While growth decelerated through the summer, economists expect that GDP rose sharply at the end of the year, with the Atlanta Fed tracking 6.7% growth. Federal Reserve officials have been watching the data closely. The central bank has indicated it will begin slowing the help it has been providing the economy since the pandemic began. Friday’s report covers the week including December 12, which is before the worst omicron peak at the start of Christmas. 劳工部周五表示，美国经济在12月增加的就业机会远低於预期，就像该国正在努力应对 Covid病例的大规模激增一样。 根据美国劳工统计局的数据，非农就业人数增加了199000人，而失业率降至3.9%。 相比之下，道琼估计的就业人数为422000人，失业率为4.1%。 休闲和酒店业创造了最高的就业机会，这是一个关键的复苏部门，增加了53000人。 专业和商业服务贡献了43000人，而制造业增加了26000人。 失业率降至大流行时期的新低，并在2020年2月接近3.5%的50年低点。 尽管劳动力参与率维持在61.9%不变，但还是出现了这种下降。 一个更全面的失业率衡量标准，包括沮丧的工人和那些因经济原因从事兼职工作的人， 下滑至7.3%，下降了0.4个百分点。 平均时薪增长超过预期，因为美国出现了近40年来最快的通胀速度。 工资当月上涨0.6%，同比增长4.7%。 这些数位正处於美国经济的十字路口，因为每天有超过50万例Covid病例，其中许多与 omicron变异有关，有可能阻碍经济复苏，而经济复苏有望在2022年加速。 虽然整个夏季经济增长放缓，但经济学家预计，今年年底GDP将大幅增长，亚特兰大联储 将实现6.7%的增长率。美联储官员一直在密切关注这些数据。 央行已表示将开始放缓自大流行开始以来为经济提供的説明。 周五的报告涵盖了包括12月12日在内的一周，这是在开始进入omicron高峰之前。 心得/评论： ※必需填写满20字 如果是超乎预期 肯定崩崩崩? 不如预期 怎麽也崩崩? 不是应该要发更多钱钱吗? --
