The November unemployment rate rose to a four-year high of 4.6%, versus expectations of 4.4% and 4.4% in September.
For October, the economy saw jobs decline by 105,000 versus 119,000 added in September. The negative October print, however, was surely influenced by the government shutdown.
Taken together, the reports paint at least a modestly weaker picture of the employment situation than had been expected.
