## Resource

The U.S. job market just flexed its muscles, adding 172,000 new jobs in May—way above expectations—and it’s part of a steady rebound after last year’s slowdown. Even with global chaos rattling oil prices, the labor numbers remain resilient, thanks in part to tax and tariff refunds keeping businesses afloat. Unemployment’s held steady at 4.3% for three months straight, as companies adopt a cautious “slow-hire, slow-fire” approach. With inflation still under watch, the Fed’s likely to keep rates frozen for now, giving the economy breathing room while staying cool on major moves.
