in News

(Bloomberg) -- Sign up for the New Economy Daily newsletter, follow us @economics and subscribe to our podcast. The government’s upcoming June jobs report will signal whether U.S. employers had greater success filling a record number of vacancies after two disappointing months of hiring. A 711,000 increase in payrolls is forecast for the month, based on the median estimate in a Bloomberg survey of economists.

"The recovery of tourism in Portugal has come to a halt," Raul Martins,...

Posted by admin

By Dhara Ranasinghe and Sujata Rao LONDON (Reuters) - A hawkish turn by the Federal Reserve has woken up world markets to the prospect that policymakers might soon start withdrawing monetary and fiscal stimulus -- and the risk of too-hasty action that could choke off the economic recovery before it is secured.
