"We saw moderate job growth for the month of July," said Ahu Yildirmaz, vice president and co-head of the ADP Research Institute. "The growth is due to an up-tick in hiring in leisure and hospitality and solid improvements in healthcare and professional and business services. However, the industries closely tied to trade struggled with widespread losses."
