The demand for labor isn’t just weak – it’s almost recessionary. The chart below shows the 3-month average Non-Farm Payroll pace after the likely benchmark revisions we will get today (~60k/month jobs deducted for year until March 2025, and extrapolating such revisions to April-August 2025).

Good morning,  Asia-Pacific Stock markets delivered mixed performance overnight, with Japan’s pencilling in an all-time high of 44,185 before surrendering gains to close marginally in the red.

That’s the market valuation the electric vehicle maker would have to reach to justify CEO Elon Musk’s new pay package announced last week. Selling 100 million humanoid robots in a year could do it; creating a robotaxi network with more than 10 times the revenue of Uber might as well. And of course, investor hope is part of the equation.
