This coincides with 172,000 new jobs added and unemployment holding steady at 4.3%. While layoffs have fallen since January’s peak, experts warn the job market is “precariously stable,” vulnerable to global shocks and rising costs. Growth isn’t universal: while some sectors boom, long-term unemployed struggle, and the number of Americans out of work for extended periods is rising. California, Washington, and Texas led in WARN Act filings, though state reporting varies. Keep watching—any spike could undo recent gains.
