08:46 AM EST, 11/11/2025 (MT Newswires) -- ADP's weekly measure of private payrolls showed an average decrease of 11,250 jobs in the four weeks ending on Oct. 25.

This is the second national employment weekly report published by ADP.

ADP noted slower demand and supply in the labor market, so economists are reassessing the break-even point to keep the unemployment rate steady. There has been an increase in the number of retirees and slower growth in the population of prime-age workers. At the same time, artificial intelligence continues to alter the workplace, ADP said.

In general the bond market is volatile, and fixed income securities carry interest rate risk. (As interest rates rise, bond prices usually fall, and vice versa. This effect is usually more pronounced for longer-term securities.) Fixed income securities also carry inflation risk and credit and default risks for both issuers and counterparties. Unlike individual bonds, most bond funds do not have a maturity date, so avoiding losses caused by price volatility by holding them until maturity is not possible.

Lower-quality debt securities generally offer higher yields, but also involve greater risk of default or price changes due to potential changes in the credit quality of the issuer. Any fixed income security sold or redeemed prior to maturity may be subject to loss.
