Overall bullish report.  Added another 18k mfg  jobs vs 25k last month.  Seems to be steady growth in what had been a dying sector.

May job gains beat expectations, unemployment rate hits 18-year low

https://finance.yahoo.com/news/us-jobs-report-may-2018-120406400.html

In May, the U.S. economy created 223,000 new jobs while the unemployment rate fell to a new post-crisis low of 3.8%, according to the latest release from the Bureau of Labor Statistics.

This is the lowest unemployment rate since April 2000. If the unemployment rate drops another 0.1% it’ll be the lowest since the 1960s.
