FT.com: US jobs growth disappoints

The pace of US jobs growth slowed to a disappointing 142,000 in August in a weak report that clashes with a wealth of other recent data on the world’s largest economy.

It breaks a six month run of jobs growth above 200,000 and came in well below analyst expectations of 230,000 new jobs. The unemployment rate fell slightly from 6.2 to 6.1 per cent.
