News Briefs

The Good: The U.S. added an unexpected 528,000 jobs last month as the unemployment rate dropped to a half-century low of 3.5%. The Wall Street Journal

The Bad: U.S. manufacturing activity in July slowed to the lowest level in two years, underscoring softer demand for merchandise amid a meandering economy. Bloomberg

And the Ugly: Unrelenting inflation is leaving more Americans living paycheck to paycheck and is even stretching top earners thin. CNBC
