BREAKING: U.S. economy added 228,000 jobs in March, far above estimates

From NBC News:

The U.S. added 228,000 jobs in March, far more than the 140,000 economists had expected. Unemployment ticked up slightly to 4.2% from 4.1% the month before.

The job data shows a remarkably resilient U.S. economy, though it’s already a snapshot in time. After President Donald Trump’s sweeping tariffs announcement slammed into global markets, analysts say the U.S. labor market is likely to enter more uncertain terrain.
