ADP Report: Economy Adds 155,000 Jobs as Labor Market Shows Resilience

Published: 04-02-2025, 05:55 pm | Updated: 04-02-2025, 02:17 pm

The March jobs report from ADP showed private companies added 155,000 positions, significantly outpacing both February’s revised 84,000 figure and the Dow Jones forecast of 120,000.

This positive economic indicator comes amid concerns about President Trump’s tariff policies potentially slowing hiring and economic activity. Job growth was widespread across sectors, with professional and business services adding 57,000 positions, financial activities growing by 38,000, manufacturing contributing 21,000, and leisure and hospitality adding 17,000.

Service providers accounted for 132,000 of the new jobs, though some sectors saw losses, including trade, transportation and utilities (-6,000) and natural resources and mining (-3,000). On the wage front, earnings rose 4.6% year-over-year for those staying in their positions and 6.5% for job changers, with the narrowing gap between these figures suggesting reduced worker mobility. The report precedes the Bureau of Labor Statistics’ nonfarm payrolls report, which is expected to show 140,000 new jobs in March.

Factory Costs Hit 82.1. That Number Is Now Working for Your Gold.

The ISM Manufacturing Prices-Paid Index hit 82.1 in May — the second-highest reading since 2022 and the 20th consecutive month of rising factory costs. Most headlines covered the manufacturing boom. Almost nobody explained what the prices-paid number means for the Fed, for inflation this summer, and for the structural case for holding gold.

Silver Has Two Engines. Stagflation Is the One Condition That Fires Both at Once.

Most assets have a simple relationship with stagflation. Silver doesn’t. It answers to two entirely separate demand pools — industrial and monetary — that in most macro environments pull against each other. Stagflation is the rare condition where both pull in the same direction at once. Here’s why that matters for investors holding physical silver today.

Samantha is wonderful. I was nervous about spending a chunk of money. I asked her to `hold my hand’ and walk me through making my purchase.  
She laughed and guided me through, step by step. She was so helpful in explaining everything...

Travis was amazing! I was having difficulty with a wire transfer of my life’s savings, and I was very worried that I might not be able to receive it all. My husband just passed away and I’ve been worried about these funds along with grieving for 8 months. As soon as I got connected with Travis, my concerns were immediately addressed and he put me at ease. The issue was resolved within days. He even called me back with updates to keep me in the loop about what was going on with the funds. I am so grateful for a customer representative like Travis. He really cares for his clients.

Sam was also very helpful! I called and was connected to Sam within 30 seconds. She helped me with a fee that was charged to my account. She had a great attitude and took care of the fee quickly.

    Outstanding quality and customer service. I first discovered Mike Maloney through his “Secrets of Money” video series. It was an excellent precious metals education. I was a financial advisor and it really helped me learn more about wealth protection. I used this knowledge to help protect my clients retirements. I purchase my precious metals through goldsilver.com. It is easy, fast and convenient. I also invested my IRA’s and utilize their excellent storage options. Bottom line, Mike and his team have earned my trust. I continue to invest in wealth protection and my own education. I give back and help others see the opportunities to invest in precious metals. Thank you.
