  • U.S. January Job Cuts Hit Highest Since 2009; Hiring Plans at Low
    February 5, 2026, 6:47 PM EST. New data from Challenger, Gray & Christmas reveal January 2026 U.S. job cuts at 108,435, the highest for the month since 2009, signaling weak hiring plans and cautious employer outlooks. Key layoffs hit transportation and technology sectors, including UPS and Amazon. Despite this, JPMorgan cautions that current cuts align more with recent years than the 2009 recession peak. The bulk of cuts stem from lost contracts and restructuring, with only 7% linked to AI-driven job losses. ADP's report shows modest private sector job gains of 22,000 amid cuts in manufacturing and business services. Rising unemployment claims and delayed BLS data add to evidence of a softening labor market early in 2026.
