A disappointing jobs report added to investors’ con- cerns that the economic recovery is losing steam. The Dow ended down 46 points Friday after the government said private employers added only 83,000 jobs last month, fewer than the 112,000 analysts had forecast. The Dow and other major indexes posted big losses for a second straight week. Light trading ahead of the long Independence Day weekend brought choppy moves, particular- ly in the final hour. The Dow was essentially flat in the last five minutes before sliding just before the close. Reports on jobs earlier Fireworks From the Chamber!

Payroll company ADP said private employ- ment was weaker than expected, while the gov- ernment said initial claims for unemployment bene- fits rose unexpectedly last week. Investors are focused on business hiring because that makes up the bulk of the country’s work force. Also, overall jobs numbers have been skewed in recent months by the hir- ing of temporary census workers. Businesses aren’t adding to payrolls as quickly as most investors would like. ‘‘The small business- man refuses to play here,’’ said Linda Duessel, equity market strategist at Feder- ated Investors in Pitts- burgh. She said business leaders don’t yet have the confidence to hire and are instead relying on tempo- rary workers. The endur- ing jobs problems are rais- ing concerns that the econ- omy will begin sliding again. Many economists say that’s unlikely but still a worry. ‘‘We’re going to need, as a market, something to make us believe that the double-dip scenario is wrong,’’ Duessel said. ‘‘A soft patch is normal.’’ She said earnings reports for the April-June quarter could boost sentiment if companies also give upbeat forecasts. The government cut 225,000 census jobs in June. Overall, 125,000 workers lost their jobs last month, worse than the expected drop of 110,000. The unemployment rate did fall unexpectedly, dropping to 9.5 percent from 9.7 percent. Econo- mists polled by Thomson Reuters had expected it to rise to 9.8 percent. How- ever, the decrease came as some people gave up looking for work. That means they weren’t count- ed among the unem- ployed.

The Standard & Poor’s The government also reported that factory orders fell in May for the first time in nine months. The 1.4 percent drop was the biggest since March 2009, when major stock indexes hit a 12-year low. The drop unnerved traders because manufacturing has been one of the strongest areas of the economy.
