On the jobs front, the unemployment rate for May remained at 3.6%, with a disappointing 75,000 new jobs created. Oil prices have pulled back considerably to the $54 level (down from $62), with very little impact on local unleaded regular gasoline prices to date.

On the financial front, my assets have hit another all-time high, slightly surpassing the previous high from May 2019. Once again I rolled my maturing 28 day T-Bills into new ones with an investment rate of 2.373% and will look to do so again next month as long as rates continue to be attractive. I also took a distribution from my S Corp and will likely pad my T-Bills a bit with some of the proceeds.

As for the non-financial, the school year is almost over for everyone, and it's time to think about a modest summer vacation. I'm not sure what that will be yet, but hopefully it will be casual and relaxing.
