Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump will do their best to claim the latest data on job creation and unemployment is in keeping with their economic policies, as both run into the last month of campaigning in the race to the White House. US employment growth eased for the third straight month in September and the jobless rate rose, but the slowdown will probably not prevent the Federal Reserve from raising interest rates later this year. Irwin Stelzer, an economist at the Hudson Institute in Washington, reads the lines in the data and gives us his take of an election in which he notes "60 per cent of Americans detest both candidates."
