Tariff Uncertainty Slows Small Business Hiring, NFIB Report Finds
Small businesses are putting the brakes on hiring plans. The Trump administration said tariffs would bring jobs back to America, especially for small businesses. Maybe that'll happen someday. For now, however, they've mostly brought confusion and slowed hiring on Main Street. That's according to the May jobs report from the National Federation of Independent Business, a small business advocacy group. The report is based on a random sample of 485 NFIB member firms surveyed throughout the month. The findings show a labor market that's softening. Just 34% of small businesses said they had unfilled job openings. That's down from nearly 50% two years ago, but unchanged since April–President Trump first unveiled his 'Liberation Day' tariffs on April 2, marking the start of what has been two months of confusion, with Trump delaying some levies, imposing others, and making additional threats. More worrisome is that small businesses aren't planning to hire much either. Just 12% of owners said they anticipate creating new jobs in the next three months, a level which NFIB says is 'in weak territory compared to recent history.' Seven of the nine industries NFIB tracks saw year-over-year declines in the share of firms with job openings. Construction fell to 48% from 54%. Transportation dropped to 43% from 52%. Professional services saw the sharpest decline, from 47% last May to just 18% today, the lowest of any sector. Retail and agriculture were the only categories to buck the trend, rising by 1 and 2 percentage points, respectively. The slight gain in agriculture may reflect hiring pressure from the administration's immigration crackdown. That weakening in labor demand has started to show up elsewhere. Just 16% of small business owners cited labor quality as their biggest problem, down 3 points from April and the lowest since April 2020. NFIB suggested that recent Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) cuts to the federal workforce may be boosting the labor pool. With more applicants, fewer firms feel compelled to offer raises. Only 26% of businesses reported raising wages in May, down 7 points from April and the weakest reading in more than four years. NFIB concluded that labor cost pressure 'is easing,' which may help contain inflation. But the bigger picture is more worrying. Tariff threats are holding back hiring. That hasn't caused major problems yet, but September looms. That's when laid-off federal workers will stop getting paid. If tariffs are still unresolved by then, small business hiring may continue to sag. And if that happens, the unemployment rate, which has held near 4% for a year, could finally break higher.

'Very disappointed' Trump in stunning live break-up with Musk
Trump says he is 'very disappointed' in Elon Musk after criticism of his tax and spending bill. Musk hits back on X, calling Trump 'ungrateful' and claiming he helped him win the 2024 election. Tesla shares drop 8% as public fallout between the two billionaires rattles markets. Tensions between Donald Trump and Elon Musk exploded into public view on Thursday, as the US president said he was 'very disappointed' by his billionaire former aide's criticisms and Musk hit back in real time on social media. 'Look, Elon and I had a great relationship. I don't know if we will anymore,' Trump told reporters in the Oval Office after Musk slammed his tax and spending mega-bill as an 'abomination'. The world's richest man responded by live-tweeting on his X social media platform as Trump spoke on television, saying that the Republican would not have won the 2024 election without him and slamming him for 'ingratitude.' Where is the man who wrote these words? Was he replaced by a body double!? — Elon Musk (@elonmusk) June 5, 2025 In an extraordinary rant as visiting German Chancellor Friedrich Merz sat mutely beside him, 78-year-old Trump unloaded on SpaceX and Tesla boss Musk in his first comments on the issue. 'I'm very disappointed, because Elon knew the inner workings of this bill better than almost anybody sitting here... All of a sudden, he had a problem,' Trump said when asked about Musk. The clash comes less than a week since Trump held a grand Oval Office farewell for Musk as he wrapped up his time leading the cost-cutting Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE). South African-born Musk, 53, hit back minutes later, saying Trump's claims he had advance sight of the bill were 'false.' 'Whatever,' he added above a video of Trump saying Musk was upset about the loss of subsidies for electric vehicles. Whatever. Keep the EV/solar incentive cuts in the bill, even though no oil & gas subsidies are touched (very unfair!!), but ditch the MOUNTAIN of DISGUSTING PORK in the bill. In the entire history of civilization, there has never been legislation that both big and beautiful.… — Elon Musk (@elonmusk) June 5, 2025 Musk then ratcheted up the public spat even further, saying the Republican would have lost the election without his support. He was the biggest donor to Trump's campaign, to the tune of nearly $300 million. 'Without me, Trump would have lost the election,' Musk said on X. 'Such ingratitude.' Tesla shares fell sharply on Wall Street, down 8%, after his comments, in a sign of the huge stakes for a falling out between the world's richest man and its most powerful. 'A little make-up?' A wistful-sounding Trump took reporters through the break-up with Musk on live television, in what at times sounded more like a therapy session than a meeting with a foreign leader. Trump talked about Musk's farewell appearance in the Oval Office on Friday, when he turned up with a black eye that he said was caused by a punch from his son. Musk, at the time, was also facing reports of drug use on the Trump campaign trail. 'You saw a man who was very happy when he stood behind the Oval desk, and even with the black eye. I said, you want a little makeup? We'll get you a little makeup,' Trump said. 'But he said, 'No, I don't think so,' which is interesting and very nice. He wants to be who he is.' Trump said he could understand why Musk was upset with some of the steps he had taken, including withdrawing a nominee to lead the NASA space agency, which the tech tycoon had backed. Through it all, the visiting German chancellor sat silently. Merz had prepared to avoid a repeat of the ambushes that Trump unleashed on the Ukrainian and South African presidents in the Oval Office - but in the end it was Musk that the US president ambushed. At the center of the bitter row is Trump's 'big, beautiful bill' on tax and spending. The centrepiece of his domestic agenda, it aims to continue tax cuts from his first term - and could define his second term and make or break Republican prospects in the 2026 midterm elections. Musk, however, called it a 'disgusting abomination' on Tuesday on the grounds that it will increase the US deficit. A day later, the magnate called for Republicans to 'kill the bill,' and for an alternative plan that 'doesn't massively grow the deficit.'

Bankruptcy Was Good for 23andMe
Sometimes a public company has a controlling shareholder who wants to take it private by buying out all of the other shareholders, and that's always messy. 1 The controlling shareholder will to some extent be negotiating with herself: She will want to buy the company for a low price, but the company's shareholders will want to get a high price, but she's the controlling shareholder and can vote for the low price. There are standard solutions to the problem, but they are only partial solutions: In the past few months, I have written a few times about 23andMe Holding Co. as an illustration of these problems. 23andMe is a publicly traded genetic testing company that was once worth about $6 billion, but it has now fallen on hard times. Its founder, Anne Wojcicki, owns about 49% of the voting power of the stock, making her effectively a controlling shareholder. She offered to buy all the stock she didn't own, to take the company private and fix its problems 'outside of the short term pressures of the public markets.' But the board of directors, whose job was to find an 'actionable proposal that is in the best interests of the non-affiliated shareholders,' didn't think her offer was good enough.
