Key points of the report
The number of job vacancies in the United States rose instead of falling in October, to 11 million, only 100000 lower than the peak in July. At present, the number of non-agricultural job vacancies is 3.8 million higher than before the epidemic. According to the cumulative decline rate of 100000 from August to October, the non-agricultural job vacancies will still be at a high level next year, which will lead to rapid wage growth in the United States and promote price rise. Of course, it is not ruled out that the decline of non-agricultural job vacancies will accelerate in the future. The labor participation rate in the United States increased by 0.2 percentage points in November, suggesting that some residents return to the labor market, but whether this can continue remains to be seen. Generally speaking, we still need to be vigilant against the risk that the continued tension in the US labor market will lead to higher inflation than expected, which will lead to the Federal Reserve raising interest rates in advance.
