Employment Cost highest In Two Decades 

United States Employment Cost IndexTrading Economics

Description

Are we going to blame Labor costs on the supply chain as well? Labor force participation is in the toilet.

Why does this matter to you? Bc Zombie companies who do not have pricing power will not be able to
pass on the costs, profitable companies will suffer margin contraction sending earnings yield south,
and if wages rise inflation won't go away. That means the FED will slam on the brakes at some point.
Bad for stocks.
