At first glance it appears that job growth and wage growth are trending down year over year. However, when compared against the Federal Reserve’s inflation target for economic growth, a more positive trend can be identified.

Working individuals have greater job security, and wage increases, while slower than before, are maintaining a steady rate in order to maintain a healthy rate of inflation.

• Implications include greater job security & steady wage increases to maintain healthy rate of inflation
