U.S. Economy Added 130,000 Jobs in January, Doubling Expectations

The United States economy added more jobs than expected, especially in the manufacturing sector, according to newly released numbers.

The January jobs report was delayed, but it was worth the wait, as job numbers almost doubled economists’ expectations of around 70,000 jobs for last month. Fox Business and the Bureau of Labor Statistics reported the Department of Labor (DOL) data showing that January’s added jobs were 130,000.

The growth is focused on the private sector, which is good news because it is the private sector that drives economic growth. In fact, federal employment is at its lowest level as a share of the workforce since 1966. While economists expected private payrolls to grow by 70,000, the actual number is 172,000 for January. Government payrolls lost 42,000 jobs at both the state and federal levels combined.
