US DATA: NY Fed Consumer Survey: More Evidence Of Low-Hiring Labor Market (2/2)

Sep-08 15:55

On the labor market/household finance side of the NY Fed's Survey of Consumer Expectations, August's findings were relatively steady compared with July, but there were a couple of negative standouts that will add to concerns over the health of the US labor market which still looks best characterized as "low hiring, low firing".

  • The main standout was in the category of "Mean probability of finding a job in the next three months if job lost today": this dropped to an all-time survey low 44.9% from 50.7%. The previous low was 46.2%, in 2020. While all demographics (ages, incomes etc) saw a deterioration in August vs July, it was most notable in those educated to high school level or less (plummeting by the most in a single month in survey history, from 51.1% to 36.0%).
  • The "macro" question of whether US unemployment will be higher one year from now ticked up (mean probability 39.1% from 37.4%) which is slightly elevated from a historical perspective but below the 44% seen in March/April's tariff uncertainty. Movement various categories were in a slightly softer direction, including: mean probability of leaving job voluntarily, earnings growth expectations, probability of changing primary residence.
  • Household income and spending growth expectations and current financial situation metrics were roughly steady on aggregate, though there was an uptick in debt delinquency expectations.
