Positive market response to U.S. labor market data
The NFP data shows that 143,000 new jobs were added, the lowest level since October of last year.
It was predicted that new non-farm jobs would be at least 169,000, and this relatively large discrepancy caused a swift reaction in the markets.
However, the unemployment rate, which was expected to be 4.1%, decreased and was announced at 4%.

The lower-than-expected job growth in the U.S. had an immediate impact on the market, despite the positive decrease in the unemployment rate. This shows how sensitive investors are to deviations from predictions in the labor market data. Will be interesting to see how this trend develops in the coming weeks.
