The US government shutdown means we didn't get the September #JobsReport scheduled for October 3, and there's also no #CPI report released today as originally scheduled: https://web.archive.org/web/20250927092822/https://www.bls.gov/schedule/news_release/cpi.htm. But the BLS website now says there *will* be an #inflation report for September, but it now will come out on October 24: https://www.bls.gov/schedule/news_release/cpi.htm.

It's unclear how good the data will be, but Quartz says they have to have something for upcoming Social Security benefit adjustments: https://qz.com/september-inflation-report-bls-publication-shutdown?utm_source=flipboard&utm_medium=activitypub

The official jobs report is MIA.
Wall Street’s numbers tell the story: hiring’s slowing, unemployment’s rising, and the economy’s losing heat.

What if a government shutdown masked a faltering job market? Jeff Cox reveals that with BLS jobs data stalled, Carlyle’s private data shows U.S. job growth barely moved in September, echoing weak reports from ADP and Challenger. Yet, some economic signs remain upbeat. Dive deeper into these revealing stats. #JeffCox #Carlyle #jobsreport https://www.cnbc.com/2025/10/07/the-shutdown-meant-no-jobs-report-carlyles-analysis-shows-it-would-have-been-pretty-bad.html

#Revelio Labs also reports monthly employment data.

They estimated 60k jobs added in Sept. mostly from Education and Health Services and Retail while the biggest loser was Leisure and Hospitality.

The Bureau of Labor Statistics did not release a #JobsReport today, as they were scheduled to do for September: https://www.bls.gov/schedule/news_release/empsit.htm. I'm not sure how long it will take for those to resume after the government reopens, but data collection will be unavoidably impaired.

Some other organizations do regular job reports as well, though not as comprehensively as the BLS. ADP, for instance, does its own survey of the private sector. They estimate it lost 32K jobs last month: https://mediacenter.adp.com/2025-10-01-ADP-National-Employment-Report-Private-Sector-Employment-Shed-32,000-Jobs-in-September-Annual-Pay-was-Up-4-5

Thread that is a substitute for the jobs report from BLS that isn't happening because of the government shutdown:

Also. The BLS data behind the #JobsReport feeds later into other products that provide estimates at the state, MSA, and county and place-cross-industry and place-cross-subpopulation levels. This is used heavily by state and local govts, bizs, orgs... ADP does almost none of this.

‘Business Continues to be Severely Depressed’: New Reports Paint Dark Picture of #Trump #Economy.

“In addition to the #ADP survey, the latest #ISM Manufacturing PMI Report revealed that the “manufacturing sector contracted in September for the seventh consecutive month” amid uncertainty caused in large part by Trump’s #tariffs.”

We will very likely not get the official BLS #JobsReport Friday. An alternative estimate of private payroll change comes from payroll processor ADP. It says the number of U.S. private sector jobs fell in Sept per @jaredb-econ.bsky.social econjared.substack.com/p/rs-big-shu...

Government shutdown could silence crucial economic data. Jeff Cox reveals the U.S. Labor Department's contingency: halting key reports like nonfarm payrolls, jobless claims, and the CPI—essential for Fed decisions. This freeze threatens market clarity amid fragile job growth. Learn how this impacts investors and policymakers.

The Bureau of Labor Statistics publishes an annual Consumer Expenditures Survey. Reports covering 1992 onward are here: https://www.bls.gov/bls/news-release/home.htm#CESAN

Annual reports for 2010 onward have come out in September. (2012-2020 also saw midyear updates.)

The 2024 report was due out 9/23, but is now postponed indefinitely. An Axios story also notes issues with data collection for other BLS reports, including the #JobsReport and #CPI #inflation reports (still on schedule for now): https://www.axios.com/2025/09/19/bls-cpi-report-inflation

Job data chaos: Kevin Breuninger reveals Trump fired BLS Chief Erika McEntarfer after historic job number revisions slashed 911,000 jobs ending March 2025. The Labor Dept’s Inspector General now probes BLS processes under political pressure to secure data integrity. Can trust in economic stats survive?

US Job Growth Revised Down by 911,000 📉💼

The U.S. government said Tuesday the economy added 911,000 fewer jobs through March than first reported — a sign growth was slowing even before President Trump’s tariffs took hold.

BLS releases annual preliminary benchmark revision, something they do every year. #JobsReport estimates are based on employer survey responses, that arrive quickly. Later, BLS checks slow-arriving, more-reliable administrative data from employers' UI premium filings. www.bls.gov/news.release...

The preliminary benchmark revision reflects the difference between two independently derived
employment counts, each subject to their own sources of error. It serves as a preliminary measure
of the total error in CES employment estimates from March 2024 to March 2025. Preliminary research,
which is not comprehensive and is subject to updates in QCEW data, indicates that the primary
contributors to the overestimation of employment growth are likely the result of two sources—response
error and nonresponse error. First, businesses reported less employment to the QCEW than they
reported to the CES survey (response error). Second, businesses who were selected for the CES survey
but did not respond reported less employment to the QCEW than those businesses who did respond to
the CES survey (nonresponse error). Estimates of other errors, such as the forecast error from the
net birth-death model, are not available at this time. Information on how the net birth-death
forecasts have reduced benchmark revisions historically are available on the CES Birth-Death Model
Frequently Asked Questions page in question 10, www.bls.gov/web/empsit/cesbdqa.htm.

MAGAnomics Isn’t Working
A dismal #jobsreport affirms earlier warnings about the #economic impact of Donald Trump’s #tariffs, #immigration restrictions, and #DOGE-led #firings.
Since May, #job growth has averaged twenty-seven thousand per month. During the first quarter of this year, the average was about a hundred and eleven thousand #jobs per month. By any measure, that’s a significant slowdown.
