The strong U.S. job market is in a ‘sweet spot,' economists say
==========
The U.S. economy added 303,000 jobs in March, the largest gain in over a year. The unemployment rate also decreased to 3.8%. The labor market looks healthy and sustainable, with broad-based job growth and real wage growth. The job market is cooler than in 2021 and 2022, but it is still relatively easy to find a job and workers are receiving inflation-adjusted raises. The Federal Reserve sees cooling wage growth as positive in the fight against inflation. The labor market is settling into a 'sweet spot' and is expected to continue growing.
