Description:

The number of jobs created in the United States has been revised down. Not as many people got jobs as expected during the last months of Joe Biden's presidency and the first months of Donald Trump's return to the White House.

It suggests the world's largest economy is weaker than expected, but could it also mean that Donald Trump will get his way and the Federal Reserve will cut interest rates?

Roger Hearing speaks to two businesses in North Carolina and Ohio caught up in the tariff chaos.

Elsewhere, we hear about Apple's latest tech offering.

And, how a high murder rate is threatening tourism on a Caribbean island paradise.
