Economic resilience: Despite global tensions and inflation, the labor market is holding up well.  ⚠️ But There’s a Catch Economists describe the situation as “low hire, low fire”: Few layoffs ✅ But also slow hiring ❌  Job openings and hiring rates are declining, making it harder for unemployed people to find jobs.  Continuing claims (people still unemployed) remain elevated around 1.84 million.  #USJoblessClaimsNearTwo-YearLow #DriftProtocolExploited $USDC
