🚨 258,000 Jobs Just Disappeared — Powell’s “Strong Labor Market” Is a Lie 🧨
July's U.S. jobs report just obliterated the Fed’s narrative.
🧾 Here’s what dropped:
Nonfarm payrolls: Just 73,000 jobs added
Economists expected: 100K+
June revision: From 147K ➤ 14K 😵...
May revision: From 144K ➤ 19K
...
That’s 258,000 jobs ERASED — in two months.
Gone. Like they never existed. That’s an entire city wiped off the payroll map.
📈 Unemployment? Tick up to 4.2% — steady rise, not a fluke.
😬 Just two days ago, Powell said:
> “The labor market is still strong.”
Yeah… not anymore.

💣 Markets React FAST...
CME’s odds of a September rate cut jumped from 40% ➤ 75.5%..
2-year Treasury yield fell 15 bps to 3.80%...
10-year yield down 8 bps
Wall Street isn’t guessing — they’re betting big on a Fed pivot.

🔎 So what’s the takeaway?
We’re staring at 2 ugly truths:
1️⃣ The labor market is sliding into recession, quietly.
2️⃣ Or BLS data is so broken it missed a quarter million jobs.
Neither is bullish. One means pain, the other means chaos.
Either way — Powell just got exposed.

🔥 Bonus Drama: Trump Goes Off
As expected, Trump jumped in on Truth Social:
> “Too Little, Too Late. DROP THE RATE!”
“Tariffs are bringing Billions into the USA!”
