The Bureau of Labor Statistics published its November #JobsReport today. U3 (the "official" unemployment rate) ticked up to 4.2%, and U6 (a broader measure of unemployment and underemployment) ticked up to 7.8%: https://www.bls.gov/news.release/empsit.t15.htm Labor participation rate ticked down to 62.5%: https://www.bls.gov/charts/employment-situation/civilian-labor-force-participation-rate.htm Net jobs +227K: https://data.bls.gov/timeseries/CES0000000001?output_view=net_1mth Summary news release: https://www.bls.gov/news.release/empsit.nr0.htm

(And if you'd wondered how last month's preliminary +12K net jobs would be adjusted, it's revised to +36K)
