The Latest On The Jobs Market And Retail Sales

The monthly jobs report is set to be released on Friday. Jill Malandrino, Global Markets Reporter for NASDAQ, discusses the current jobs market. She talks about how younger wage earners, like teenagers, are currently in the best position. To get a true gauge on the jobs market, it will have to be recalculated after children go back to school and stimulus checks end. She then speaks about the retail market, specifically that Amazon (AMZN) is pushing Prime Day up to June 21-22 because of the amount of expected travel in July, when it is usually held. Target (TGT), Walmart (WMT), and Best Buy (BBY) are also running deals that coincide with Prime Day.
