SO MUCH WINNING!!!!!!!!!
US jobs figures just out show the worst year for jobs gains outside a recession since 2003. Only 50,000 jobs in December and just 584,000 jobs in all of 2025. Nearly 85% of the job gains happened by April. Little hiring the rest of the year.
Unemployment rate: 4.4% in Dec, up from 4% in January.
