About this episode
The episode discusses the U.S. jobs report and its implications for the labor market, alongside updates on Broadcom and Blackstone.
The U.S. jobs report is expected to show 85,000 positions added in May and unemployment holding at 4.3%, as economists describe the labor market as a "low hire, low fire stalemate."
