Economic Insights: What to Expect from the Upcoming Jobs Report
On October 4, 2024, the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics is set to release its employment situation report for September. Market analysts are predicting a moderate increase in payrolls, with estimates ranging up to 144,000 new jobs. This news comes as the core Personal Consumption Expenditures (PCE) index continues to cool, indicating a potential slowdown in economic growth.
As an economist and individual investor with 30 years of experience, I’ve developed a keen eye for spotting undervalued stocks with high growth potential. My investing group, DIY Value Investing, focuses on identifying top picks with catalysts for upside, dividend-income recommendations, and high-upside plays.
This year’s top pick has been a standout performer, with impressive one-day changes and daily gains. My public articles have consistently delivered strong returns, with average returns of 8.40% in 2023, 6.90% in 2022, 29.90% in 2021, and 49.90% in 2020.
My flagship products include Top DIY Picks, featuring undervalued stocks with upcoming catalysts; Dividend-income Champs, highlighting companies with a long history of dividend growth; and DIY Risky Picks, offering speculative allocations with high momentum potential.
As a disclosure, I have no stock, option, or similar derivative position in any of the companies mentioned, and I do not plan to initiate any such positions within the next 72 hours. My opinions are my own, and I receive no compensation for my articles beyond what I earn from Seeking Alpha.
