US labor market weakened in June

The US labor market showed weakened job growth in June with an increase of 57,000 jobs, down from previous months. Leisure and hospitality jobs declined by 61,000 due to slower seasonal hiring, while business services, social assistance, and healthcare added jobs. The unemployment rate fell to 4.2%, but 720,000 people left the labor market, according to an economist.
