March Jobs Report: Is the Labor Market Slowing?

The March Jobs Report is in, and while the headline numbers look solid, a closer look shows signs the labor market may be slowing. In this episode of Real Estate News for Investors, host Kathy Fettke breaks down the latest data from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, including job growth, unemployment, and wage trends. You'll also hear thoughts from Zillow's chief economist, Orphe Divounguy, who says the report may not be as strong as it appears. We cover what's really happening beneath the surface—from slowing hiring and rising discouraged workers to cooling wage growth—and what it could mean for inflation, interest rates, and the Federal Reserve's next move. Tune in to understand what this jobs report means for the housing market—and your investment strategy.
