Description

TERS/Carlos Barria
The US unemployment rate fell to its lowest level in half a century in September as the economy created jobs for a record 108th straight month.
But in the manufacturing sector, employers eliminated jobs.
While President Donald Trump has pledged to revive factory jobs in the US, that pocket of the economy dipped deeper into a recession last month.
