Private Payrolls Jump
Private sector hiring was a bit better than expected in February, though most of the job creation came from just two sectors, ADP reported Wednesday. Companies added a seasonally adjusted 63,000 workers during the month, an improvement from the downwardly revised 11,000 in January and better than the Dow Jones consensus estimate for 48,000, according to the payrolls processing firm’s latest update. Though the total beat expectations, the issue of breadth continued to be a problem for the labor market.
