The US added fewer jobs than expected in September and wage growth slowed, signaling some caution among employers amid rising costs.
Nonfarm payrolls increased 29,000 last month after a downward revision to the prior two months, according to Bureau of Labor Statistics data out Friday. That missed all estimates in a Bloomberg survey of economists.
The unemployment rate rose to 4.2%, partly reflecting a growing workforce.

Hewlett Packard Enterprise Co. boosted its networking revenue forecast and announced a $1.2 billion order from cloud company Vultr, giving fresh signals that it’s benefiting from the AI build-out.

The company, which expanded its networking business by acquiring Juniper Networks last year, now expects that segment to range from the high teens to the low 20s in percentage sales growth during fiscal 2027. The company also gave a longer-range sales outlook in the high teens, with an operating margin target of as much as the high 20s.

US consumer spending rose in August at the fastest pace in over a year, helping to power the economy through persistent inflation. Inflation-adjusted personal spending climbed 0.6% in August from a month earlier, for the biggest monthly jump since March 2025. The Federal Reserve’s preferred measure of underlying inflation, the personal consumption expenditures price index excluding food and energy, rose a less-than-expected 0.2%. The prior month was also revised lower.

Apple Inc. Chief Executive Officer John Ternus, just weeks into the role, is moving to overhaul the iPhone maker in an effort to accelerate product development, broaden its range of devices and create a leaner organization with a greater focus on engineering.

The plans, which Ternus has discussed internally with colleagues, offer the first signs of how Apple’s former hardware engineering chief intends to reshape the company following Tim Cook’s 15-year tenure as CEO. We take a closer look with Mark Gurman, Bloomberg News Managing Editor for Global Consumer Tech.
