The unemployed rate also increased to 4.3%, which is the highest level in about three years.<br \/>\nYahoo Finance&#8217;s Madison Mills explains that the Sahm rule &#8220;says that if the three month moving average of the unemployment rate rises by half a percentage point from the previous that signals the start of a recession.&#8221; Yahoo Finance sat down with the creator of the Sahm rule, Claudia Sahm, chief economist at New Century Advisors and former Federal Reserve Board economist, to discuss the state of the economy.<br \/>\nSahm notes that she doesn&#8217;t think we are in a recession right now, but she believes &#8220;that the increases in the unemployment rate and the softening in the labor market is worrisome&#8230; and we could end up in a recession in say 3 months, 6 months,&#8221; which Sahm &#8220;is very concerned about.&#8221;<br \/>\nSahm adds that &#8220;the Sahm rule is probably over playing it right now, to some extent, just because of&#8230; a lot of shocks we&#8217;re working through,&#8221; such as the pandemic and labor force.<br \/>\n#youtube #news #stocks<br \/>\nAbout Yahoo Finance:<\/p>\n<p>Yahoo Finance provides free stock ticker data, up-to-date news, portfolio management resources, comprehensive market data, advanced tools, and more information to help you manage your financial life.<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; Get the latest news and data at finance.yahoo.com<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; Download the Yahoo Finance app on Apple (https:\/\/apple.co\/3Rten0R) or Android (https:\/\/bit.ly\/3t8UnXO)<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; Follow Yahoo Finance on social:<\/p>\n<p>X: http:\/\/twitter.com\/YahooFinance<br \/>\nInstagram: https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/yahoofinance\/?hl=en<br \/>\nTikTok: https:\/\/www.tiktok.com\/@yahoofinance?lang=en<br \/>\nFacebook: https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/yahoofinance\/<br \/>\nLinkedIn: https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/company\/yahoo-finance<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The July jobs report fell short of expectations, with the US economy adding only 114,000 jobs compared to the forecasted [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":0,"featured_media":471,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-470","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v17.6 -
