Top Day Market News
Last night, Chinese Purchasing Managers’ Index came in lower than expected.
The unemployment rate was expected by consensus to come in at a decent 180K with non-farm private payrolls forecast to come in at +193K while the headline number had been forecast to come in at 7.7%. The first impulse last night was to take stocks higher and bonds lower on the increasing probability of a stronger than expected jobs number. In addition to this, the Street will have to deal with U of Michigan consumer sentiment, the Institute for Supply Management and Construction Spending.
Now for the reality…
+157K and the headline jumps to 7.9%. There were upward revisions in Nov and Dec by 86K and 41K. A little disappointing but buy the rumor and sell on the news. The EC is reaching levels which will hurt German exports.
