Daily Market Snapshot: Employment Data Underwhelms, Stocks Fall, Yields Drop

The key US employment data did come in under expectations on Friday but was close enough that the market is now pricing in a much higher chance of a 25-basis point cut than before the data. US Stock indices took a hard hit, with tech stocks again taking the brunt of the move and the dollar rallied. 

Yields dropped with both the 2-year and 10-year hitting multi-month lows despite that change in rate cut expectations, moving higher for this month. Oil also dipped hard again to close out a tough week on fresh lows and Gold moved back down under the key $2,500 level.

It’s a relatively quiet start to a big trading week today with just major Chinese numbers on the cards in the Asian session that will have a significant impact on markets.
