El mercado laboral de EE. UU. muestra signos de recuperación antes del informe de empleos

El próximo informe de empleos de EE. UU., que se publicará el viernes, se espera que revele la creación de 105,000 nuevos empleos en mayo, manteniendo la tasa de desempleo en un 4.3%. Este sería el tercer mes consecutivo con más de 100,000 empleos añadidos, lo que podría indicar una estabilización en el mercado laboral. Sin embargo, la situación es compleja, con cambios estructurales y un aumento en los empleos de medio tiempo y de bajos salarios, especialmente en el sector de salud. Además, se prevé que la inflación y los despidos en el sector tecnológico, impulsados por la inteligencia artificial, afecten el panorama laboral. A pesar de los recortes, las solicitudes de desempleo se mantienen cerca de mínimos históricos, sugiriendo que el impacto no es tan severo como se podría pensar.
