ENTRY-LEVEL JOBS ARE DISAPPEARING Unemployment for 22–27 year olds with a bachelor’s has jumped from 3.8% to 4.9%—the sharpest rise of any education group since 2018–19. Meanwhile, 52% of 2023 grads were underemployed a year after finishing school—the highest rate in years. Layoffs in white-collar sectors like finance, tech, and business services are rising too, while entry-level hiring has dropped 50% at the top 15 tech firms since 2019. Handshake reports 15 % fewer entry‑level postings this school year while applications per post have surged 30 %. Recent grads are staring at 6.6 % unemployment versus 4 % nationwide as companies run the old grunt work through ChatGPT instead of junior hires. There are fewer internships, fewer training roles, and fewer jobs that even require a degree.

Interesting chart from @DKThomp. Recent college grads used to have a lower unemployment rate than the rest of the country, but now they’re actually more likely to be unemployed than the average American.

@spomboy But I think there's a competing effect - the collections process could be moving formerly unemployed college grads off mom's couch and into the workforce; employment among college grads shot up by 250k in Jul, even as the broader employment figure fell 260k

Going out on a limb here: maybe now is a good time to stop making TikTok videos about purposely not paying your student loans to "protest" Trump, but what do I know - have fun w/ wage garnishment and the rest...

Recent college grad unemployment just hit 5.8%. That’s a full 2% higher than the rest of the workforce. Degrees are up. Hopes are up. Jobs? Nowhere to be found. This isn’t a soft landing. It’s a brutal wake-up call.

Last week, we showed how the engineering degree — once a solid path to the middle class — is failing new American grads. This week, we looked at Computer Science. If you thought engineering grads were struggling, computer science grads are faring even worse. 🧵 THREAD

The rate of "underemployment" among college graduates has remained essentially flat for 35 years. That's the share of people with degrees in jobs that typically don't require a BA (though this is an under-scrutinized measure). For recent grads, it's near 20-year lows.

Male college grads are now just as likely to be unemployed as people who never went to college Same is not true for women, who are much more likely to land a job once they graduate college The data is just eye opening. We are leaving young men behind like never before

There is a bit of mythologizing about how we forced all young people to go to college and now they are economically ruined. Around 60% of people in their 30s do not have a college degree. And the college wage premium remains near a historical high.

Mike Rowe: “We’ve been telling kids for 15 years to learn to code.” “Well, AI is coming for the coders.” “It’s not coming for the welders, the plumbers, the steamfitters, the pipefitters, the HVAC, or the electricians.” “In Aspen, I sat and listened to Larry Fink say we need 500,000 electricians in the next couple of years—not hyperbole.” “The BlueForge Alliance, who oversees our maritime industrial base—that’s 15,000 individual companies who are collectively charged with building and delivering nuclear-powered subs to the Navy … calls and says, we’re having a hell of a time finding tradespeople. Can you help?” “I said, I don’t know, man … how many do you need? He says, 140,000.” “These are our submarines. Things go hypersonic, a little sideways with China, Taiwan, our aircraft carriers are no longer the point of the spear. They’re vulnerable.” “Our submarines matter, and these guys have a pinch point because they can’t find welders and electricians to get them built.” “The automotive industry needs 80,000 collision repair and technicians.” “Energy, I don’t even know what the number is, I hear 300,000, I hear 500,000.” “There is a clear and present freakout going on right now. I’ve heard from six governors in the last six months. I’ve heard from the heads of major companies.” @mikeroweworks

@GaryWinslett Gary, I know a little about data gathering data and there is no way anyone knows tariff cost for an average family. The confidence test for 2 or 3 z would make zero dollars possible.

Trump's tariffs are now costing the average American family more than $2,000 this year. That's a lot of money to most families.

Trump will openly post “I am firing the head of the BLS because the job numbers looked bad for me” and people will still go “would be bad if Trump was firing the head of the BLS just because the numbers looked bad for him. He should probably clarify why he did that”. Like c’mon.

Ray Dalio@RayDalio

I probably would have fired the head of the Bureau of Labor Statistics too. That's because its process for making estimates is obviously obsolete and error-prone, and there is no good plan in the works for fixing it. The huge revisions in Friday’s employment numbers are symptomatic of this, especially because the revisions brought the numbers toward private estimates that were in fact much better. I assure you that this is something that I know a lot about because of how I use data to follow the economy and bet on where it's going. Of course, if the way most people in the media are in conveying President Trump’s motivation for the firing is correct —such as The New York Times saying "When President Trump didn’t like the weak jobs numbers that were released on Friday, he fired the person responsible for producing them"—that would be a big problem because leaders manipulating numbers that distort the truth to suit their political objectives is a classic sign of the loss of a functioning system with rule of law and checks and balance, and the loss of these things leads to the loss of confidence that underpins our whole economic and political system. So, it would be good if President Trump made his thinking clear. In any case, we do need big renovations to the ways the government estimates what's going on in the economy to make them more, not less, accurate.

College students & their families are shelling out thousands of dollars just to outfit a dorm room. Trump's tariffs have made everything from microwaves to pencil cases to bed linens more expensive. It’s yet another example of how his chaos economy is forcing working families to do more with less.

All those people who tell me support for women's single sex spaces means I must support Reform (which I don't) appear to share exactly the same opinion on women's single-sex spaces as Reform.
Times Radio@TimesRadio

“I’m not an expert on trans people, all that I know is that everybody should be treated with humanity and decency.” Reform UK’s justice adviser @VanessaFrake says trans women should be “assessed on an individual basis” rather than automatically removed from women’s prisons.
