AI Layoffs Shock: 41% of Companies Plan Cuts; US Underemployment Hits 8.1% — Trading Implications for Rates, Equities, and Crypto (BTC, ETH)

According to @KobeissiLetter on X (Sep 19, 2025), 41% of companies intend to lay off employees due to AI within five years, the 3‑month average youth underemployment rate has risen to 17% (highest since 2020), and the overall US underemployment rate just climbed to 8.1% (highest since 2021), signaling a structural labor shift that could affect asset pricing, source: @KobeissiLetter on X. For traders, a rise in underemployment typically points to softer wage pressure and a more data‑dependent policy path, which the Federal Reserve has repeatedly highlighted in 2023–2024 statements and press conferences, source: Federal Reserve FOMC communications (2023–2024). If these labor trends are corroborated by official releases (e.g., BLS U‑6 underemployment), markets often respond with lower front‑end rate expectations and bid for duration, which can spill over into liquidity‑sensitive risk assets including BTC and ETH, source: BLS labor metrics definitions and Federal Reserve emphasis on labor‑inflation dynamics.
