Lufthansa cancels hundreds of flights as pilots strike over pay
SymbolPriceChange%ChangeDLAKY$6,000,152.53 Lufthansa pilots went on strike on Friday, forcing the German airline to cancel hundreds of flights, barring holidaymakers. The airline said it canceled around 800 flights at its main bases in Frankfurt and Munich on Friday, affecting 130,000 passengers, and said it was working steadily to minimize the impact of the strike. The Vereinigung Cockpit (VC) trade union had called more than 5,000 Lufthansa pilots for a 24-hour strike, saying the latest round of wage talks had failed. Strikes and staff shortages have already forced several airlines, including Lufthansa, to cancel thousands of flights this summer, leading to long queues at major airports, frustrating people eager to resume travel after the COVID-19 lockdowns. The VC union is demanding a 5.5% pay rise this year and automatic inflation compensation thereafter, as well as better conditions for entry pilots. Lufthansa said the VC demands would increase its staff costs by 40%, or about 900 million euros ($899 million) over the next two years.

August jobs will be released on Friday
The week’s key economic report, the August employment report released Friday morning, is expected to show a solid labor market that is beginning to rest. Economists expect the Labor Department to say the U.S. economy added 300,000 new nonfarm payroll jobs in August. That’s down from a blowout gain of 528,000 in July. “If the consensus among economists is close to correcting, the number of jobs added in August will be the lowest in over a year,” said Mark Hamrick, senior economic analyst at Bankrate.com. “At the same time, the unemployment rate is at 3.5%, the lowest point since the pandemic, corresponding to a decade low.” The manufacturing sector likely added 20,000 jobs in August, following a larger-than-expected increase of 30,000 the previous month. Look for hourly earnings to increase 0.4% month over month and up 5.3% from a year ago. Click here for more: Jobs report, Lululemon shares rise and more: 5 things to know on Friday

Lufthansa cancels hundreds of flights as pilots strike over pay
SymbolPriceChange%ChangeDLAKY$6,000,152.53 Lufthansa pilots went on strike on Friday, forcing the German airline to cancel hundreds of flights, barring holidaymakers. The airline said it canceled around 800 flights at its main bases in Frankfurt and Munich on Friday, affecting 130,000 passengers, and said it was working steadily to minimize the impact of the strike. The Vereinigung Cockpit (VC) trade union had called more than 5,000 Lufthansa pilots for a 24-hour strike, saying the latest round of wage talks had failed. Strikes and staff shortages have already forced several airlines, including Lufthansa, to cancel thousands of flights this summer, leading to long queues at major airports, frustrating people eager to resume travel after the COVID-19 lockdowns. The VC union is demanding a 5.5% pay rise this year and automatic inflation compensation thereafter, as well as better conditions for entry pilots. Lufthansa said the VC demands would increase its staff costs by 40%, or about 900 million euros ($899 million) over the next two years.

August jobs will be released on Friday
The week’s key economic report, the August employment report released Friday morning, is expected to show a solid labor market that is beginning to rest. Economists expect the Labor Department to say the U.S. economy added 300,000 new nonfarm payroll jobs in August. That’s down from a blowout gain of 528,000 in July. “If the consensus among economists is close to correcting, the number of jobs added in August will be the lowest in over a year,” said Mark Hamrick, senior economic analyst at Bankrate.com. “At the same time, the unemployment rate is at 3.5%, the lowest point since the pandemic, corresponding to a decade low.” The manufacturing sector likely added 20,000 jobs in August, following a larger-than-expected increase of 30,000 the previous month. Look for hourly earnings to increase 0.4% month over month and up 5.3% from a year ago. Click here for more: Jobs report, Lululemon shares rise and more: 5 things to know on Friday
