On Wednesday, payroll processing company, ADP, revealed a report indicating a more robust private sector job growth in the United States for the month of March than anticipated.

According to ADP, the employment in the private sector surged by 184,000 jobs in March. This rise followed a previous increase of 155,000 jobs in February, which was more than the original projection.

It was initially forecasted by economists that private sector employment would see an uptick of 148,000 jobs. Comparatively, the prior month's originally recorded growth was 140,000 jobs.

This unexpectedly robust job growth largely stemmed from the leisure and hospitality industry, which reported an addition of 63,000 jobs during the month.
