Sign saying "Now Hiring" sits on a lawn.

What to know:

  • The U.S. added a far stronger than expected 119,000 jobs in September, but the unemployment rate rose to 4.4%.
  • The data was delayed by about 6 weeks due to the government shutdown.
  • Bitcoin continued with a modest overnight gain at $91,900.

The labor market strengthened more than expected in September as the government begins to again release official economic data following a deal to end the shutdown.

Nonfarm payrolls increased by 119,000 in September, according to a Bureau of Labor Statistics report released Thursday morning. Economists had expected a gain of 50,000 while the August reading was 22,000.

The unemployment rate, however, rose to 4.4% against 4.3% expected and 4.3% in August.

This jobs report normally would have come in the first week in October, but was delayed due to the government shutdown. More topical jobs data won't be available until mid-December.

Up modestly after strong results and outlook from Nvidia calmed markets Thursday evening, bitcoin mostly held that gain, trading at $91,900. U.S. stock index futures continued with strong Nvidia-led gains, the Nasdaq higher by 1.9%. The 10-year Treasury yield remained at 4.11% and the dollar continued with small gains.

Prior to the report, markets have more or less eliminated the chances of a Fed rate cut in December and this data isn't likely to reverse that idea.

The announcement by America’s Health Insurance Plans (AHIP), which includes CVS Health’s Aetna, Humana, Cigna, Centene and an array of Blue Cross and Blue Shield plans as members, comes ahead of the first meeting of the reconstituted Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices, which now has new members chosen by U.S. Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., a vaccine critic. “Health plans are committed to maintaining and ensuring affordable access to vaccines,” AHIP said in a statement Wednesday. “Health plan coverage decisions for immunizations are grounded in each plan’s ongoing, rigorous review of scientific and clinical evidence, and continual evaluation of multiple sources of data.” The move by AHIP is good news for millions of Americans at a time of year when they flock to drugstores, pharmacies, physician’s offices and outpatient clinics to get their seasonal flu and Covid shots. Kennedy’s changes to U.S. vaccine policy have created confusion across the country over whether certain vaccines long covered by insurance would continue to be. AHIP has now provided some clarity for millions of Americans. “Health plans will continue to cover all ACIP-recommended immunizations that were recommended as of September 1, 2025, including updated formulations of the COVID-19 and influenza vaccines, with no cost-sharing…
