The June unemployment rate remained unchanged.

Market Watch reported:

The United States gained 195,000 new jobs in June and employment gains in the prior two months were stronger than originally reported, indicating little slowdown in the pace of hiring during the spring and early summer. The economy created an average of 196,000 jobs a month in the April-to-June period, down just slightly from the 207,000 pace in the first quarter. The rate of job creation appears to have held up better than expected given a slowdown in the U.S. economy and even weaker conditions around the globe.
