According to BlockBeats, analysts have commented on the U.S. non-farm payroll report, suggesting that strong wage data may further reduce expectations for interest rate cuts and negatively impact the front end of the yield curve. Overall, they believe the employment data reinforces their view that the Federal Reserve will maintain its current interest rate levels, at least until the fourth quarter of this year.
The analysts highlighted a slight increase in wages and a stable unemployment rate of 4.2%, indicating that the Federal Reserve is likely to remain inactive. Consequently, the probability of a rate cut by the Federal Reserve in September, which was fully priced earlier this week, is expected to decrease to around 75%.
