California Inc.: Waze carpool app aims to redefine people's commutes
Welcome to California Inc., the weekly newsletter of the L.A. Times Business Section. Investors climb back on the bus Monday after the troubling news Friday that job growth slowed sharply in May to just 138,000, an unexpectedly lackluster figure that raises concerns about the labor market -- but probably not enough to derail an expected Federal Reserve interest rate hike this month. The unemployment rate ticked down a tenth of a percentage point to 4.3%, the lowest since 2001. Totally awesome: Marketing and design professionals will gather in Los Angeles this week for "PromaxBDA: The Conference 2017," which promises to be "100% awesome." The event will run through Thursday at the J.W. Marriott Hotel.
