According to The Kobeissi Letter, the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) likely overstated private sector job gains in 2024 by a significant 907,000 jobs, as revealed by BLS data released on Wednesday. This discrepancy was uncovered when the Quarterly Census of Employment and Wages (QCEW), which covers 97% of U.S. employers, showed far fewer job gains than previously reported (source: The Kobeissi Letter on Twitter, June 6, 2025). For traders, this large overstatement could signal slower-than-expected economic growth, potentially increasing market volatility and impacting both stock and cryptocurrency prices. Understated job growth could also influence the Federal Reserve’s interest rate decisions, affecting liquidity and risk sentiment in crypto markets.
