Economists forecast that private payrolls increased by 188,000 in June, according to Bloomberg. The first print of job creation in May was reported at 253,000.
The data comes ahead of the Bureau of Labor Statistics' nonfarm payrolls release on Friday, and amid a wide gap between both metrics. Looking at a six-month average of both, the difference is the widest since at least 2012.
"ADP and payrolls do not tend to diverge for more than two months,"inky Chadha, the chief global strategist at Deutsche Bank, told Business Insider. "We are now in six months of what is cumulatively a very large diversion."
Economists forecast that the BLS nonfarm payrolls report would show an increase by 177,000 jobs, and no change in the unemployment rate, at 4.3%.
