[U.S. April Nonfarm Payroll Forecast Released: 120,000 New Jobs, Hourly Wage Growth May Rebound to 3.8%] Reported by Jinse Finance, on May 8, Bill Adams, Chief U.S. Economist at Fifth Third Bank, predicted that April's nonfarm payrolls are expected to add 120,000 new jobs, with the unemployment rate remaining unchanged at 4.3%. The annual growth rate of average hourly wages may rise from 3.5% in the March report to 3.8%, partially alleviating the impact of rising gasoline prices on living costs. If this forecast is realized, the average monthly job growth since the beginning of the year will be approximately 80,000, which exceeds the growth rate of job seekers. The latter has slowed due to population aging and immigration restrictions. (Jin10)
