US Nonfarm Payrolls
| Nonfarm payrolls or NFP is a monthly change in the number of employed people. It is the significant indicator of business health and, as a result, the whole economic activity in the United States. That is why traders pay high attention to it. The US dollar needs additional rate hikes this year, so a positive reading of the indicator will increase chances of the Federal Reserve raising interest rates. Look at an economic calendar at 15:30 MT time on May 4. If the data is positive, the US dollar will rise. |
