ADP weekly 4-week moving average of private employment 11.75K vs 11.5K prior

The recent ADP report indicates that U.S. private employers added an average of 11,750 jobs per week, showing a slight improvement from the previous week's figure of 11,500. This suggests that the employment trend is growing, albeit modestly. The ADP data, which is seasonally adjusted, reports employment trends with a two-week lag for more accurate real-time insights. The NER Pulse is derived from this data, reflecting weekly job changes based on a four-week moving average. Such data releases, including a historical overview of 12 weeks, occur every Tuesday. The December National Employment Report showed an increase of 41,000 jobs, contrasting with the Bureau of Labor Statistics' figure of 50,000, which fell below expectations. The impact of these employment metrics on the financial markets should be monitored carefully.
