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.

The governing council cut its benchmark main refinancing rate from 0.15 per cent to 0.05 per cent and said it would charge lenders 0.2 per cent, up from 0.1 per cent, for their deposits parked at the central bank.
