Daily digest market movers: DXY loses ground despite strong labor data

· Views 6


 

  • The Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) in the US published the Job Openings and Labor Turnover Survey (JOLTS) for February, which showed 8.75M job openings.
  • This figure surpassed January's adjusted count of 8.74M and overtook the market expectation of 8.74M. 
  • As for now, the market foresees a 63% probability of the first 25 bps rate cut in June, which is still contingent on incoming data.
  • US Treasury bond yields are mixed on Tuesday with the 2-year yield at 4.70%, indicating slight downward movement. In contrast, 5 and 10-year yields at 4.34% and 4.36%, respectively, show minor increases.
  • Nonfarm Payrolls, Average Hourly Earnings, and Unemployment Rate data will dictate the pace of expectations and the US Dollar for the short term.
