US added 175,000 jobs in April, Apple’s stock rallies on earnings: Yahoo Finance

In This Article:

The April employment report shows signs the US labor market may be cooling. The US added 175,000 jobs last month, fewer than the 240,000 jobs economists had been expecting. The unemployment rate ticked higher to 3.9% from 3.8%. One of the biggest movers on Wall Street is Apple (AAPL). The tech giant posted better-than-expected sales in China and authorized a massive $110 billion share buyback plan. Other trending tickers on Yahoo Finance include Coinbase Global (COIN), Amgen (AMGN), and Block (SQ).
