US Jobs Report: Strong Payrolls Could Trigger Market Sell-Off

Published by
Qadir AK

The U.S. August jobs report is due today, with markets expecting 55,000 new payrolls and a 4.1% unemployment rate. A stronger-than-expected report could pressure markets by increasing expectations for a September Fed rate hike, especially after hawkish comments from Kevin Warsh. A weaker payroll figure or higher unemployment could instead boost markets by reducing rate-hike expectations. Investors will also watch revisions, after May and June payrolls were already revised down by a combined 103,000 jobs.
