Kyle Rizdal: 六月新增就业岗位远超预期，失业率也降至4.1%，这无疑是一个令人惊喜的消息。然而，深入分析后发现，就业增长主要集中在政府和医疗保健两大领域，这让我感到有些不安。此外，劳动力参与率也降至近年来的最低水平，这在一定程度上解释了失业率的下降。尽管如此，考虑到特朗普政府的税收政策，我预计未来经济将受到一定程度的刺激。 Heather Long: 我对六月就业报告的最初反应是“哇”，因为各项数据都远超预期。但我也注意到，大部分新增就业岗位都集中在政府和医疗保健领域，特别是州和地方政府的教育部门。如果你不在这些领域找工作，机会可能不多。此外，制造业和白领岗位的减少可能与人工智能和关税的不确定性有关。至于美联储的政策，我认为鲍威尔可能会等到九月再考虑降息，因为目前他面临的压力并不大。税收减免法案可能会在明年开始对经济产生影响，但其高昂的代价也需要我们关注。

The June jobs report showed 147,000 new jobs and a decrease in the unemployment rate to 4.1%. However, a closer look reveals that most of the jobs were in government and healthcare, and the labor force participation rate hit its lowest level since December 2022. The impact of tariffs and the Federal Reserve's next move are also discussed.
  • 147,000 new jobs added in June
  • Unemployment rate dropped to 4.1%
  • Most job growth in government and healthcare sectors
  • Labor force participation rate at lowest level since December 2022
  • Uncertainty around tariff impacts and Federal Reserve interest rate decisions

Shownotes Transcript

On California farms, ICE raid fears persist — at least half of the state’s crop workers are undocumented. As a result, the farms that grow three-quarters of U.S. fruits and nuts are experiencing worker shortages as harvests begin. In this episode, Trump's immigration policy clashes with the realities of labor-intensive farm work. Plus, growth on the June jobs report may be overstated, lower tariffs are still tariffs, and we check in on the import sector.
