The aftermath of the jobs report
If I were to characterize the changes after the US jobs report:
- The dollar is lower. The USDJPY is trading down about 10 pips versus the USDJPY at the moment. The EURUSD is down -6 pips (dollar up). The GBPUSD is down about 6 pips
- US stocks are lower. The e-minis were at 3342,. and is trading at 3334.5 currently
- The 10 year yield is now down -3.8 basis points at 1.604%
- Gold is up marginally. It currently is trading up $1.80 or 0.11% at $1568.50
- WTI crude oil futures are down $0.70 (they are down about $0.50 earlier in the day)
The changes are modest and up and down in most markets.
