Economists project government report to show highest employment growth in recent months vaccinations increase and economic activity, including robust manufacturing, returns. The median estimate in a Bloomberg survey of economists is that the unemployment rate will fall to 6% as non-farm wages rise by 643,000.

Decision makers, including Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell and Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen he expressed confidence last week that the labor market would return.

While the central bank sees unemployment falling to 4.5% by the end of the year – a relatively low forecast – Powell highlighted the “highly desirable outcome” of expanding labor force participation.

“Economic data has already begun to shake vigorously ahead of relaxed social distance measures, extensive vaccinations and the latest round of fiscal incentives. From retail to industrial production, signs of a strong reaction have been increasingly abundant in recent months. Even so, the March employment report will mark a peak, where the economy is clearly turning into a much faster growth rate – one that has not been witnessed in a generation.
