U.S. November Employment Report: Softer than expected job gains

Key points: U . S . job gains decelerated in November increasing by 155K versus expectations of 198K.Yet, this number remains within the usual range with potential candidates to explain the slowdown (weather, fires…). The near-term trend is now softer but remains close to 200k.Meanwhile, the unemployment rate was flat at 3.7% with a stable participation rate. Wage growth kept expanding at 3.1% on a yearly basis. This number should not be a game changer either for the market ’s mood or for Fed expectations.
