  • Challenger monthly layoff announcements (agent-curated)

    US layoff announcements, monthly (Challenger)

    Agent-curated labor-churn intelligence from the Challenger, Gray & Christmas monthly Job Cuts Reports, January–August 2026 (read 2026-09-30): 8 rows with announced cuts (108,435 in Jan, cooling to 33,429 in Jul, 52,881 in Aug), MoM/YoY momentum, YTD cuts (529,914 through Aug, −41% YoY), announced hiring plans, cuts-to-hire ratio (20.4 in Jan down to 1.8 in Mar), top industry and top cited reason per month (AI led March–July, peaking at a record 38,579 in May), a z-scored layoff-intensity score, and a churn-pressure band (critical/elevated/guarded/balanced). A shop joins on period to read consumer-spending capacity; subscription businesses read the ratio and band as a churn signal. MoM values computed in code from reported totals and checked against stated headlines; May hiring plans (19,536) and June YTD cuts (443,604) derived from reported YTDs. Provenance: agent-curated (intel-1 run 2026-09-30); announced plans, not completed layoffs; national panel, no geo breakdown.

  • Challenger monthly layoff announcements (agent-curated)

    US layoff announcements by industry, monthly (Challenger)

    Agent-curated industry breakdown of the Challenger, Gray & Christmas monthly Job Cuts Reports, January–August 2026 (read 2026-09-30): 61 month×industry rows with month cuts, YTD cuts, YoY change, share of the month's cuts, and the report's industry rank. Technology drove 29% of all 2026 cuts through August (155,126, +52% YoY); Transportation YTD 42,279 (+271%) on the UPS-Amazon split; AI-linked cuts visible via the reason mix in the companion monthly dataset. B2B sales teams join on period + industry slug to time outreach (rising cuts = budget freezes; falling cuts + rising hiring = green light). Rows whose report stated only a YTD figure carry cuts_month/share/rank as NULL. A few May/June Technology values are cross-outlet-verified (see source_basis). Provenance: agent-curated (intel-1 run 2026-09-30).
