ADP data shows payroll growth slows

Private payroll growth slowed to 18,500 per week, or approximately 74,000 per month, for the four weeks ending October 3, according to ADP data.

Earlier, E.J. Antoni noted that CPI rent prices are lagging and do not yet reflect lower real-world rent inflation. He also reported that U.S. private oil stocks dropped by nearly 3.2 million barrels last week. These observations come as new labor data signal a shift in private payroll growth momentum.
