U.S. job growth slower much more than expected in July, and the data from the prior month was revised sharply lower, indicating the labor market could be showing signs of stalling.
Nonfarm payrolls increased by 73,000 jobs in July, after rising by a downwardly revised 14,000 in June, the Labor Department data showed on Thursday. Economists polled by Reuters had forecast 110,000 jobs added last month.
