But a good overall print, uh, you know, you your your um underlying jobs gain is averaging around fifty thousand at the moment. voice-verified

So that's sort of keeping your unemployment rate um pretty much steady. voice-verified

So the unemployment rate came in at four point three percent um as expected, um un unchanged on the month. voice-verified

However if you if you voice-verified

add a few decimals at at the end of that, um, it did it did increase slightly. voice-verified

So it went from four point two five six to four point three three seven. voice-verified

So small, small edge edge higher in in the unemployment rate. voice-verified

But the average hourly earnings actually slowed um to zero point two percent. voice-verified

That was um from zero point three and so that did come in below expectation. voice-verified

So a bit of a mixed mixed bag um there, but uh and also there's sort of a question I guess going forward. voice-verified

sort of on the earnings front, um, if if if the slowing persists, whether that, you know, weighs in on on consumer spending and consumer sentiment. voice-verified

And on the consumer spending we do have US retail sales this this week. voice-verified
