Yesterday was the worst day for U.S. stocks in nearly two years. [Markets around the globe fell sharply](~/AAAAAQA~/RgRolICIP0TUaHR0cHM6Ly93d3cubnl0aW1lcy5jb20vMjAyNC8wOC8wNS9idXNpbmVzcy9nbG9iYWwtc3RvY2tzLmh0bWw_Y2FtcGFpZ25faWQ9OSZlbWM9ZWRpdF9ubl8yMDI0MDgwNiZpbnN0YW5jZV9pZD0xMzA4OTAmbmw9dGhlLW1vcm5pbmcmcmVnaV9pZD03NzY3NDk1MiZzZWdtZW50X2lkPTE3NDMwMyZ0ZT0xJnVzZXJfaWQ9YWE0OTFlZjdmMWQ5NjRlNDk3OWZiNzg0ZTc0ZTAxZDdXA255dEIKZquI-7FmunxleVIbdHJpc3RyYW1iYWxkd2luOTBAZ21haWwuY29tWAQAAAAD); the S&P 500 index was down 3 percent. Stock markets are fickle, and their movements canât tell you much about the health of the economy. Today, the S&P 500 could fall another 3 percent â or it could erase yesterdayâs losses. But yesterdayâs tumult reflects an underlying reality: The job market is cooling. That cool-down was expected, even necessary, after a wild four years: The early pandemic brought astonishing job losses, followed by a frenetic recovery. Now, the unemployment rate, at 4.3 percent, is basically back to normal. But some recent data has alarmed economists, and it helped spark yesterdayâs sell-off. In todayâs newsletter, Iâll explain. The wild ride Nearly 22 million workers lost their jobs after Covid struck. By April 2020, the unemployment rate â which had been at a five-decade low of 3.5 percent â jumped to nearly 15 percent. Businesses thought many of those layoffs would be temporary. They expected to reopen quickly and bring workers back. Instead, the pandemic dragged on. By the time vaccines became widely available in early 2021, many businesses found that the employees they had let go were no longer available. Some had found other jobs, changed industries or started businesses of their own. Some didnât yet feel safe returning to work or couldnât find child care. Some had retired or returned to their home countries. Some had been killed or disabled by Covid. The result was a scramble to hire from a limited pool of workers. There were soon two available jobs for every available worker.

Especially in the service sector, they jumped between jobs in search of better pay and working conditions. Wages soared, with the lowest-paid workers winning the fastest gains â a reversal of the longstanding trend of rising inequality. Over time, though, supply and demand came into better balance. More Americans returned to work, joined by an influx of immigrants. Job openings are now back roughly to where they were before the pandemic. Wage growth and job turnover have both slowed.

A reset, not a slowdown A cooling labor market might sound like a bad thing â and in most circumstances, it is. But the labor market of late 2021 and early 2022 was perhaps too hot. Businesses raised pay and still couldnât find the workers they needed, leaving customers frustrated with poor service and long waits. Workers complained that, for all their supposed leverage, staffing shortages left them exhausted and burned out. The hot labor market also posed a problem for the Federal Reserve, which has been trying to bring down inflation. Wage growth didnât cause the initial surge in prices. But if businesses kept seeing their labor costs rise, they were likely to keep raising prices, too. So the recent cool-down has been something of a relief. Even better, it has happened with hardly any increase in job losses. That is remarkable because job openings and unemployment usually move in opposite directions: When demand slows, companies post fewer jobs and lay off employees. Many economists expected the same this time around. [They were wrong](~/AAAAAQA~/RgRolICIP0TtaHR0cHM6Ly93d3cubnl0aW1lcy5jb20vMjAyNC8wMS8yNi9idXNpbmVzcy9lY29ub215L2Vjb25vbXktcmVjZXNzaW9uLXNvZnQtbGFuZGluZy5odG1sP2NhbXBhaWduX2lkPTkmZW1jPWVkaXRfbm5fMjAyNDA4MDYmaW5zdGFuY2VfaWQ9MTMwODkwJm5sPXRoZS1tb3JuaW5nJnJlZ2lfaWQ9Nzc2NzQ5NTImc2VnbWVudF9pZD0xNzQzMDMmdGU9MSZ1c2VyX2lkPWFhNDkxZWY3ZjFkOTY0ZTQ5NzlmYjc4NGU3NGUwMWQ3VwNueXRCCmariPuxZrp8ZXlSG3RyaXN0cmFtYmFsZHdpbjkwQGdtYWlsLmNvbVgEAAAAAw~~). This time, openings fell â not because companies needed fewer workers but because there were finally enough workers to fill positions that had been sitting open, in some cases for years. Wages stopped rising as quickly, but so did prices, which meant workers were in many cases better off than at the height of the boom.

What comes next That has been the story: a surprisingly painless return to normal. But job data released on Friday offered a warning: The unemployment rate rose to 4.3 percent â still quite low, but the highest in more than two and a half years. Layoffs havenât yet picked up, but workers who do lose their jobs are having a harder time finding new ones. That risk is part of the reason that Fed officials are likely to begin cutting interest rates soon.
