Currency traders work near a screen showing the Korea Composite Stock Price Index at the foreign exchange dealing room of the KEB Hana Bank headquarters in Seoul, South Korea, Thursday, Sept. 5, 2024. – Asian markets were mixed Thursday following a global sell-off a day earlier, as Wall Street declined in the technology, energy and other sectors.Data released Thursday showed Japan's wage growth remains strong, as average cash earnings in July grew 3.
The Labor Department reported that there were 7.7 million open jobs in July, down from 7.9 million in June and the fewest since January 2021. Openings have fallen steadily this year, from nearly 8.8 million in January. But overall, the report was mixed, with hiring having risen last month. The U.S. will release its monthly jobs report for August on Friday. Economists polled by FactSet expect that report to show that the U.S. added 160,000 jobs, up from 114,000 in July, and that the unemployment rate edged lower to 4.2% from 4.3%. The report’s strength, or weakness, will likely influence the Fed’s plans for how it trims its benchmark interest rate.
