Economic DataInflationInterest Rates & YieldsMonetary Policy

US nonfarm payrolls rose only 57,000 in June, down sharply from the prior trend and following downward revisions to the previous two months. The weaker-than-expected hiring signal is likely to increase caution around labor-market momentum and could influence expectations for the path of interest rates. Overall, the data tilts modestly risk-off for the near-term rate outlook.
