The U.S. labor market bounced back in August, adding 144,000 jobs just two months ahead of the presidential election. The Labor Department report, which showed unemployment falling to 5.4%, clears the way for another interest rate hike by the Federal Reserve later this month.

The number of jobs added in June and July was revised higher: July went from 32,000 added to 73,000 added, while June went from 78,000 added to 96,000 added.

120,000 jobs added by the business birth/death adjustment.
Without that it would be only 24,000 jobs.
