๐Ÿšจ LAYOFF WAVE 2025 ๐ŸŒ

As Trumpโ€™s tariffs tighten global margins, AI eats workflows, and boards chase efficiency over expansion, corporate America is shedding workers fast ๐Ÿช“๐Ÿ“‰

๐Ÿ‘ทโ€โ™‚๏ธ Recent Job Cuts:

โ€ข ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ Procter & Gamble: -XXXXX (15% corp staff) ๐Ÿงผ๐Ÿ“ฆ
โ€ข ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ Microsoft: -XXXXX (3%, not perf-based) ๐Ÿ’ป๐Ÿง 
โ€ข ๐Ÿ‡จ๐Ÿ‡ณ Citigroup: -XXXXX (China IT ops) ๐Ÿฆ๐ŸŒ
โ€ข ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ Walmart: -XXXXX (ecom, ads, ops) ๐Ÿ›’๐Ÿ“ฆ
โ€ข ๐Ÿ‡ธ๐Ÿ‡ช Klarna: -XX% (AI replacing humans) ๐Ÿค–๐Ÿ’ณ
โ€ข ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ CrowdStrike: -XXX (AI shift in cybersecurity) ๐Ÿ›ก๏ธ๐Ÿง 
โ€ข ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ Disney: hundreds (TV, film, casting) ๐ŸŽฌ๐Ÿ“บ
โ€ข ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ Chegg: -XXX (22%, AI education shock) ๐Ÿ“š๐Ÿ’ก
โ€ข ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ Amazon: -XXX (Alexa, Ring, Zoox) ๐Ÿ—ฃ๏ธ๐Ÿš˜
โ€ข ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ Warner Bros. Discovery: <100 (org restructure) ๐Ÿ“บ๐ŸŽž๏ธ

๐Ÿง  Big Themes:
โ€ข AI is now headcount strategy, not just tech stack ๐Ÿค–
โ€ข Tariffโ€‘driven inflation pressures capex + labor ๐Ÿ“ˆ
โ€ข Firms favor cost control > topline growth ๐Ÿงพ๐Ÿช™
โ€ข โ€œDo more with lessโ€ is this cycleโ€™s new mantra ๐Ÿ’ผโš–๏ธ

๐Ÿ›๏ธ Policy Context:
โ€ข April Jobs strong, but ADP shows 2โ€‘yr low in private hiring
โ€ข Trumpโ€™s tariffs = pricing pressure = margin contraction = layoffs
โ€ข Fed cautious on cuts; labor market cracks showing โš–๏ธ๐Ÿ’ฅ

๐Ÿ“ฃ QUASAR MARKETS TAKE:
This is not a one-off. Itโ€™s the first wave of a structural realignment: AI as labor displacement, tariffs as profit compression, and C-suites chasing operational alpha.

๐Ÿ”ญ Watch layoffs rise further as Q3 earnings get revised and Fed remains dataโ€‘dependent.
