Are we on the verge of a generational jobs crisis?
The 3-month average youth underemployment rate jumped to 17% in July, the highest since 2020.
This metric includes unemployed individuals aged 16–24.
Now, the youth underemployment rate has climbed by ~5 percentage points over the last 2 years.
This is nearly in line with the peak during the 2001 recession and the early stages of the 2008 Financial Crisis.
This also signals the US labor market could weaken further, with young workers typically the first to feel the impact when the economy turns.
The job market is rapidly deteriorating.

Zelenskyy’s response:
🔸 Had a 90-minute call with Trump.
🔸 Ukraine ready for “constructive cooperation.”
