The <br />unemployment rate edged down to 4.2%, though the decline was driven by a drop in labor force participation to 61.5%, its lowest level <br />since March 2021.Revisions further weakened the report’s signal. April payrolls were revised down by 31,000 to 148,000, while May was <br />lowered by 43,000 to 129,000, resulting in a combined two-month downward revision of 74,000. <br />Source: US Department of Labor Source: US Department of Labor <br />EMPLOYMENT <br />4 <br />Page 174 of 373
