US Adds 173,000 jobs in August, As Unemployment Hits 7 Year Low

The U.S. economy added a modest 173,000 new jobs in August to mark the
smallest gain in five months, but employment dropped to near a 7/12
year low of 5.1%. The Labor Department's monthly jobs report released
Friday could tip the balance for the Federal Reserve, as policy makers
weigh whether to raise interest rates later this month.
