U.S. gained 64,000 jobs in November but lost 105,000 in October; unemployment rate highest since 2021

The United States gained a decent 64,000 jobs in November but lost 105,000 in October as federal workers departed after cutbacks by the Trump administration, the government said in delayed reports. The unemployment rate rose to 4.6%, highest since 2021. Both the October and November job creation numbers, released Tuesday by the Labor Department, were late because of the 43-day federal government shutdown. The November job gains came in higher than the 40,000 economists had forecast.
