US July 2026 Jobs Report (BLS, August 7, 2026): Nonfarm Payrolls exceed 80,000 new jobs

Pending ✦ AI-generated prediction Published on 18. July 2026 · Predicted for 7. August 2026 · Based on: Historical Cycle
Probability
72%

The US labor market has been resilient throughout 2026: June added 172,000 jobs (vs 85,000 consensus), unemployment at 4.3%. The 80,000 threshold is well below the six-month trend. Risks: energy sector layoffs at lower WTI prices (this platform predicts WTI >$80/bbl on July 22 — moderate oil prices), Iran conflict dampening capital investment. Even a significant labor market slowdown is unlikely to breach 80,000. No specific Polymarket market for July 2026 NFP available.
