US Market View
Very muted market reaction after NFP. However, given the margin of error some of the recent prints have seen (in relation to consensus estimates), this can be considered a rather "in-line" release. The U.S. labor market's recovery weakened in September, with the economy adding only 661,000 new nonfarm jobs through the middle of the month, less than half of what it created in the month through mid-August.
US Key Point
- Fed's Harker: Will accept periods of above 2% inflation after long periods of sub-2%
- Madrid and nine nearby cities to enter partial lockdown today
- EURUSD defines the range. Moves a little lower after the jobs report.
