Non-farm Payrolls - Data Expected to Be Stunning!
Updated
Following last week's Fed meeting, it was clear that the central bank was only putting off hawkish rhetoric, but was not ruling it out in the near future. Consequently, the basis for expectations is there, we just need data that would indicate that the economy continues to grow. The hope is the U.S. unemployment report coming out this Friday.
It is expected that job growth, the most important indicator in terms of the Fed's post-pandemic policy impact could show a figure close to a million. If the economy creates more jobs than forecast, the odds increase sharply that the Fed will warn in August about a policy adjustment - a reduction in the pace of asset purchases (treasuries and mortgage-backed securities), probably this year. In that case, long-dated bonds would become slightly less profitable, given the approval of the infrastructure plan, which would require new borrowing, investors could start exiting treasuries en masse.
Non-Farm Payrolls Employment
Last data: 850K
Consensus Forecast: 880K
The Non-Farm employment change measures the change in the number of people employed during the last month in the non-farm sector. Total Non-Farm Payrolls represent about 80% of the workers who produce all of the Gross Domestic Product of the United States.
It is the most important piece of data contained in the employment report that offers the best overview of the economy.
Monthly changes and adjustments in the data can be very volatile.
U.S. Average Hourly Earnings YoY
Last data: 0.3%
Consensus forecast: 0.3%
Unemployment Rate
Past data: 5.9%
Consensus forecast: 5.7%
The unemployment rate measures the percentage of the total labor force that is unemployed but actively looking for a job and willing to work in the United States.
A high percentage indicates weakness in the labor market. A low percentage is positive for the U.S. labor market and should be taken as a positive factor for the USD.
