Good Jobs Numbers, but Here Is What Is Really Happening (Video)

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.


In this 8 June 2026 published video, host Michael Bordenaro talks about how U.S. employers recently added 172,000 new positions, more than doubling initial estimates and outperforming previous stagnant periods. Despite these surprisingly strong top-line numbers, a closer look at the data reveals that wage growth is being outpaced by inflation and that the labor market is highly concentrated.

While job counts have gone up, average hourly earnings are only growing at roughly 3.4 percent year-over-year. This trails behind inflation rates, meaning many workers’ paychecks do not cover the surging costs of everyday items. Job growth has not been evenly distributed. The vast majority of new positions have been limited to a few specific sectors, primarily healthcare, leisure and hospitality (driven by summer tourism and the World Cup), and local government. Other industries like manufacturing, tech, and financial services have remained largely stagnant or are declining. While hiring has picked up, some companies are still actively reducing headcounts or shifting entry-level hiring budgets toward AI and automation. Long-term unemployment has seen an uptick. Many qualified individuals are struggling to even secure interviews, making the job hunt much harder than the raw numbers suggest.
