In June, U.S. employers added 147,000 jobs, showcasing the labor market's resilience amid uncertainties surrounding President Trump's economic policies. The Labor Department's monthly report also revealed that the unemployment rate decreased to 4.1%, down from 4.2% in May, with hiring surpassing economists' expectations. State government payrolls climbed by the most since the start of 2023, led by education, while employment at local governments also surged. Health care payrolls rose 59,000, the least in four months. Employment also moderated in leisure and hospitality, as a 20,000 increase in June followed a downward revision of similar size in May. Payrolls declined in manufacturing, wholesale trade and business services. Average hourly wages increased by 0.2% from May and 3.7% year-over-year, to $36.30. The Labor Department's weekly jobless report, meanwhile, revealed that initial claims for unemployment benefits fell 4,000 in the seven days to June 28th; the four-week moving average declined 3,750 to 241,500, while total claims, reported with a one-week lag, were unchanged at 1.964m.

Hiring confidence among UK employers has reached its lowest point in 13 years, according to BDO’s Business Trends barometer. The report highlights that the rise in national insurance, which adds £20bn annually to employers' costs, has led to a "prolonged caution from UK business." Many firms are hesitant to recruit due to policy uncertainty and the prospect of further tax increases in the autumn budget. Scott Knight, head of growth at BDO, commented: "We're seeing early signs of recovery in business output," primarily driven by the services sector. "But as we all know, we can't rely on good weather forever." A separate survey by the CBI found optimism among financial services bosses has fallen sharply, with many signalling that they plan to cut headcount in the coming months.

On Friday, President Donald Trump signed a sweeping tax and spending bill into law in a high-profile White House ceremony. Celebrated as a major legislative win, the law extends most of Trump's 2017 tax cuts and adds deductions for tips, overtime, and seniors. The bill, which the Congressional Budget Office estimates will aid $3.4tn to federal deficits over the next 10 years, is being partially paid for by significant cuts to health care and nutrition programs, including Medicaid, and the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP,) which provides food assistance to over 13m children and makes kids automatically eligible for free meals at school. It also largely terminates numerous tax incentives from the 2022 Inflation Reduction Act for clean energy, electric vehicles and energy efficiency programs, ending tax credits for new and used electric vehicles, installation of home EV charging equipment and insulation or energy efficient heating and cooling systems. It creates a new voucher-like program that will pay for private school scholarships, although states will be allowed to opt out if they wish. Individuals can subtract $1,700 off their tax bill if they donate that amount to an organization that awards scholarships to kids who attend private school. The cuts to Medicaid, the fourth-largest source of federal funding for schools, have caused alarm; Jessie Mandle, the national program director at the nonprofit Healthy Schools Campaign, said it is the equivalent of cutting district budgets, adding: “School districts are very much aware of how important Medicaid dollars are to serve students with disabilities, address the youth mental crisis, [and] address students’ behavioral health needs.”

Service workers in the U.S. are eagerly awaiting the elimination of taxes on their tips, but the fine print in Republicans' new law could limit savings for some workers. Only the first $25,000 in tips is free from income taxes, and tipped workers will still face the 7.65% combined payroll taxes that fund Social Security and Medicare. Workers won't be able to benefit if federal officials say their type of service job doesn't qualify. The "no tax on tips" measure, which started as a campaign promise by President Trump during a 2024 stop in Nevada, is now a key element of the tax-and-spending megabill signed into law Friday. The cut could save some service workers thousands of dollars a year in federal taxes. More than a third of tipped workers don't make enough to pay federal income taxes, including many low-income workers with children and students who work in part-time tipped jobs. The relief will take effect this tax year, including for tips already received.

A new Survation poll reveals that over a third of Scots believe crime has increased in their local area, while nearly two-thirds lack confidence that police have sufficient resources to prevent it. Although many still trust the police to solve crimes after they occur, concerns persist over visible policing and preventative work, with officers often diverted to health-related duties. Justice Secretary Angela Constance acknowledged public concern but insisted Scotland remains safe, pointing to a long-term decline in reported crime since 1991. However, opposition parties accused the SNP of neglecting frontline policing and contributing to an "epidemic of serious violence." Both Scottish Labour and the Conservatives called for urgent investment to restore public confidence and ensure police are adequately equipped to protect communities. David Threadgold, chair of the Scottish Police Federation, said: "If the government is genuinely concerned about policing and the electorate's perception of crime, then it should take heed of this poll."

A federal bench trial is commencing to address a lawsuit challenging the Trump administration's actions against faculty and students involved in pro-Palestinian demonstrations. Filed by various university associations, the lawsuit claims that the administration's policy infringes upon the First Amendment and the Administrative Procedure Act. The plaintiffs argue: “The policy's effects have been swift. Noncitizen students and faculty across the United States have been terrified into silence.” They assert that the policy has led to self-censorship and a withdrawal from public engagement among affected individuals. The government contends that the plaintiffs are misrepresenting the existence of a formal policy, claiming it is a “policy of their own creation.” However, the plaintiffs maintain that evidence will demonstrate the administration's systematic approach to targeting pro-Palestinian activists.

Apple has filed a lawsuit against the European Commission after being fined €500m for violating the Digital Markets Act. The company argues that the Commission's decision "go far beyond what the law requires," claiming it mandates how Apple operates its App Store, which could confuse developers and harm users. Apple has recently revised its App Store rules to comply with EU regulations to avoid daily fines of 5% of its average daily worldwide revenue, approximately €50m. The EU is currently seeking feedback from app developers regarding these changes. In a related matter, Apple was previously ordered to pay Ireland €13bn in unpaid taxes after a lengthy dispute.

Senior McKinsey partners report that chief financial officers at the group's Global CFO Forum in London last month are focused on navigating uncertainty through strategic growth planning, balance sheet resilience, and the integration of artificial intelligence (AI). Growth is a major concern due to unpredictability, prompting more granular business analysis. Balance sheet strength to withstand geopolitical shocks is also a priority. Additionally, M&A activity is expected to rebound after prolonged uncertainty, with bolder CFOs seeing current volatility as a strategic opportunity. Deal-making is increasingly viewed as integral to corporate strategy rather than an adjunct. "The bolder CEOs and CFOs are looking at some transactions that might not have been possible in the past and wondering whether this is the time to do them," commented Michael Birshan, who leads McKinsey in the UK, Ireland, and Israel. "They all agree that the direction of travel is clear. It is evident that there is more national sovereignty, more regulatory complexity, more focus on engagement with governments than before. Amid all this, we have clients who see an opportunity for more strategic engagement."
