YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

A disappointing jobs report shows that employers cut 92,000 jobs in February. The report also included downward revisions for the previous two months and a slight rise in the unemployment rate. It paints a picture of a labor market struggling across several sectors, including some that were engines of recent growth. Amna Nawaz discussed more with Diane Swonk, chief economist at KPMG.
