Chicago Fed president on the new jobs report and economy

Season 2025 Episode 38 | 6m 37s

The new jobs report shows the pace of hiring slowed slightly in January with the economy adding 143,000 jobs. The report also revised down jobs numbers between April 2023 and March of 2024 by nearly 600,000, the largest annual revision in more than 15 years. To help make sense of it all, Amna Nawaz spoke with Austan Goolsbee, president and CEO of the Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago.
