Bloomberg median economists project May unemployment at 4.3% and nonfarm
payrolls up 89,000. That would lift the three-month average job gain to the
highest in over a year and reignite debate about accelerating hiring. Forecasts
point to continued strength in healthcare, a rebound in construction and leisure
& hospitality partly aided by warmer weather, and a potential manufacturing jobs
uplift as consumers stockpile goods ahead of possible price spikes from an Iran
conflict.
