CNN: U.S. Economy Adding 57K Jobs in June, Below Expectations

‘There were over 700,000 people who left the labor force in the past month, that is a concern’

EXCERPT:

BLITZER: “And we begin this hour with the breaking news, the United States adding 57,000 jobs in the month of June, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics. That's well below economist expectations, which predicted the economy would add some 100,000 jobs. Some welcome news at the same time, the unemployment rate ticking down slightly, coming in at 4.2 percent.”
