Kyle Rizdahl: 我主持了本期节目,讨论了本周的就业报告以及特朗普政府的贸易政策对美国经济的影响。我们分析了就业报告中的一些数据,例如新增就业岗位和失业率,并讨论了这些数据可能反映出的劳动力市场疲软迹象。我们还探讨了特朗普政府反复无常的贸易政策对企业经营和经济发展的影响,以及华尔街对经济衰退的担忧。最后,我们还讨论了财政部长史蒂文·姆努钦的言论以及特朗普政府对经济状况的不同态度。 Heather Long: 我分析了本周的就业报告。总体而言,报告显示经济仍在增长,新增就业岗位超过15万个,失业率为4.1%。但是,报告中也有一些令人担忧的迹象,例如医疗保健领域的招聘增长以及许多兼职人员希望转为全职工作。这些都可能预示着劳动力市场正在趋于疲软。此外,我还谈到了特朗普政府的贸易政策对经济的影响,以及华尔街对经济衰退的担忧。我认为,特朗普政府的政策已经与美国经济紧密联系在一起,难以撇清责任。 Courtney Brown: 我主要讨论了特朗普政府的贸易政策对美国经济的影响。我认为,特朗普政府的贸易政策反复无常,扰乱了经济,企业难以应对。这种以30天为周期的贸易政策制定方式不可行,导致企业无所作为,不利于经济发展。此外,关税的反复变化也增加了经济的不确定性,难以预测未来的经济走势。

Shownotes Transcript

Overall employment dropped last month, according to the monthly jobs report from the Bureau of Labor Statistics. At the same time, employers added jobs to the economy. Weird, right? Well, two surveys make up the monthly report — one of households and one of employers. And they can disagree. Plus, more part-time workers want full-time jobs, Gap is on a roll, and professional basketball has become a game regulations.
