United States Non Farm Payrolls
A monthly employment report produced on the first Friday of every month, nonfarm payrolls have a significant impact on the value of the US dollar, the bond market, and the stock market. As per the Bureau of Labor Statistics, the Current Employment Statistics (CES) program conducts surveys of approximately 141,000 businesses and government agencies, which represent approximately 486,000 individual worksites, in order to provide detailed industry data on employment, hours, and earnings of workers on nonfarm payrolls.
A higher than expected figure should be seen as positive (bullish) for the USD while a lower than expected figure should be seen as negative (bearish) for the USD.
