The US Black unemployment rate jumped to 7.0% in Q3 2026, surging from the previous 6.0% and marking the largest single-month increase since the pandemic. This data was mainly driven by climbing unemployment among Black women, further reflecting a sudden freeze in overall nonfarm employment and triggering market concerns over US economic recession risks.
