Nonfarm payrolls increased by 29,000 jobs last month after a downwardly revised rise of 133,000 in August, the Labor Department's Bureau of Labor Statistics said. Economists polled by Reuters had forecast payrolls would advance by 90,000 after a previously reported surge of 162,000 in August. Estimates ranged from as low as 35,000 to as high as 180,000.
The data for July was revised to show the economy shed 10,000 jobs, the second time this year that payrolls turned negative.
All told, the economy added 60,000 fewer jobs in July and August than previously estimated.
