US Job Report Sparks Market Optimism

The latest US Job data by the Labor Department showed that the non-farm payroll surged by 12,000 in October, down from the revised figure of 223,000 noted in the prior month. Notably, the market was anticipating the figure to stay at 110,000.

On the other hand, the US unemployment rate remained steady at 4.1%, unchanged from the figure noted in September. It also comes in line with the Wall Street expectations. The Average Hourly earnings for October came in at 0.37%, while on a year-over-year (YoY) basis, it surged 3.99%.

Meanwhile, the latest job data appears to have given some relief to the investors, who were expecting the Fed to pause cutting the interest rates this month. Notably, the cooling non-farm payroll data and rising unemployment rate tend to boost the market sentiment. In other words, such conditions usually hint towards a hawkish move by the central bank.

Having said that, the latest job data indicates a potential US Fed rate cut in November, followed by another rate cut next month.
