The July non-farm payroll report released by the Bureau of Labor Statistics has sent shockwaves through financial markets, raising concerns about the U.S. economy's health and dramatically altering expectations for Federal Reserve policy. The report revealed a significant weakening in the labor market, with only 114,000 new jobs added in July, far below economists' forecasts. More alarmingly, the unemployment rate jumped to 4.
Financial markets reacted swiftly to the news, with U.S. equities experiencing substantial declines across major indices. The Dow Jones Industrial Average fell 1.5%, while the S&P 500 and NASDAQ Composite suffered losses of 1.84% and 2.43%, respectively. These drops inflicted significant technical damage, pushing the NASDAQ into correction territory, more than 10% below its July peak.
The gold market experienced heightened volatility in response to these developments. December gold futures traded in a wide range between $2,453 and $2,522.50, ultimately settling $4.80 lower at $2,484.40, as of 5:20 PM EDT.Perhaps most significantly, the jobs report has dramatically shifted expectations for the Federal Reserve's September meeting. While a rate cut was already anticipated, the probability of a more aggressive 50 basis point reduction has surged from 22% to 71.
