📉 Shocking Jobs Report Shakes U.S. Markets

The United States recorded its worst jobs report since the COVID-19 pandemic, adding only 73,000 jobs in July, compared to expectations exceeding 100,000. The biggest shock was the downward revision of May and June data by more than 250,000 jobs, bringing the actual average over 3 months to less than 35,000 jobs per month!

🔻 This slowdown led to a sharp drop in U.S. stock indexes; the Dow Jones fell more than 500 points, and Nasdaq by 2.2%. In contrast, investors flocked to bonds and gold as safe havens, and expectations for an interest rate cut in September's meeting rose to 85%.

📌 The message is clear: The U.S. labor market is starting to show structural weakness, and the repercussions of trade policy and immigration restrictions may be among its causes. The markets are now on alert for any move from the Federal Reserve or the White House.
