About this listen

 P.M. Edition for Sept. 9. The Labor Department’s Bureau of Labor Statistics said today that the U.S. added 911,000 fewer jobs over the 12 months that ended in March. WSJ economics reporter Justin Lahart explains what that means for the U.S. economy. Plus, new data from the Census Bureau shows that inflation erased Americans’ income gains last year. Journal economics reporter Konrad Putzier breaks down the data and discusses what that says about the economy President Trump inherited. And Israel has attacked Hamas’s leadership in Doha, Qatar. We hear from WSJ senior Middle East correspondent Summer Said about the impact this strike could have on peace negotiations. Alex Ossola hosts. Sign up for the WSJ's free What's News newsletter.
