Challenger Report on Corporate Layoffs for January 2016

Earlier today, the global outplacement consultancy Challenger, Gray and Christmas, Inc. released its report on Corporate Layoffs for January 2016:

-------------------------------

Job Cuts Announced During January 2016: 75,114
Last month: 23,622
Change from last month: +218%

-------------------------------

If corporate layoffs are high, consumer spending may decline, since there would be fewer people with steady jobs.

When corporate layoffs are low, this can mean that the job market is relatively tight, which can be a harbinger of wage inflation.
