Some Positives? The Federal Reserve’s Beige Book data is showing temp staffing jobs have been rising for the past six months after falling sharply over the prior four years. Historically, this is often a leading indicator that broader hiring is coming. However, the Iran conflict, AI impacts, and a still uncertain economy appear to be moderating hiring trends.

A Split Market. While layoffs and unemployment remain relatively low, hiring has fallen to levels last seen during the early pandemic. This has resulted in an unprecedented split: a stable job market for people who have jobs and recession-like for those trying to find one. Increased confidence in the economy should result in a hiring surge, in our view, with resulting benefits to staffing companies.
