The non-farm private sector added 122,000 jobs in May, and annual pay was up 4.4% year-over-year, according to the ADP National Employment Report. This follows a downward revision of April’s report from 109,000 to 105,000.

Service-providing employment added 114,000 jobs, driven by education/health services gaining 57,000 jobs, followed by trade/transportation/utilities gaining 36,000. However, information services lost 9,000,
