United States (U.S.) Employment Jumps by 130,000 Jobs in January

A report released by the Labor Department on Wednesday showed employment in the U.S. increased in January. The Labor Department reported that non-farm payroll employment increased by 130,000 jobs in January, following a 48,000 job rise in December. The stronger job growth largely reflected a sharp increase in employment in the health care and social assistance sector, which surged by 123,500 jobs. Notable job growth was also seen in the construction sector, while the government and financial activities sectors shed jobs.

The report also said the unemployment rate edged down to 4.3% in January from 4.4% in December. The drop in the unemployment rate came as the household measure of employment surged by 528,000 people, while the labor force jumped by 387,000 people.

The Labor Department also said average hourly employee earnings climbed by $0.15 or 0.4% to $37.17 in January. Average hourly employee earnings in January were up by 3.7% compared to the same month a year ago, unchanged from the reading in December. 02/11/2026 - 10:20:00 (RTTNews)

China CPI (Consumer Price Index) Inflation Softens, Producer Price Deflation Eases

China inflation softened in January due to the Lunar New Year holiday effects, while producer price deflation softened. Consumer price inflation weakened to 0.2% in January from 0.8% in December. Monthly, consumer prices gained 0.2%. Core inflation, which excludes prices of food and energy, eased to 0.8% from 1.2% in the prior month.

As the festival holiday came in February this year, compared to January last year, creating a higher base of comparison, food prices logged an annual fall of 0.7%, reversing a 1.1% rise in December. At the same time, non-food inflation fell to 0.4% from 0.8%.

Producer prices declined at a slower pace of 1.4% in January after easing 1.9% in the previous month. Although inflation is set to come comfortably below the target, it is not likely to substantively affect the central bank's decision-making, he noted. 02/11/2026 - 00:51:00 (RTTNews)
