1. Jobs report: On Friday, the U.S. Labor Department will reveal how many jobs were added to the workforce in June. It will also provide an update on the unemployment rate. The U.S. unemployment rate fell to 4.3% in May, the lowest level since 2001. The reason for that drop: More Americans stopped looking for work. That's not a great sign. Economists were disappointed, saying the job market had lost momentum.
