Many analysts forecast a modest increase in job growth, with estimates around 194,000 to 206,000 new jobs being added in July​​. This is slightly lower than previous months, indicating a potential softening in the labour market. Factors contributing to these predictions include mixed economic signals and the impact of recent Federal Reserve policies. Some analysts believe that a weaker-than-expected NFP report could increase the likelihood of the Fed considering rate cuts later in the year​
