US greenback jumps after non-farm payrolls then provides it proper again

It is robust to sq. the numbers within the non-farm payrolls report with the market response.

The roles report was good, notably the family survey because the unemployment charge fell again to three.7% regardless of rising labor power participation.

Unemployment charge

The preliminary market response was precisely what you’d count on with the US greenback surging throughout the board, up round 50 poips. Since then although, it is all been erased and USD/JPY is now decrease than it was earlier than the report.

I believe that final element is a clue as there might have been some giant USD/JPY positions searching for some liquidity to make an exit and that could possibly be spilling over into broader USD weak spot.

That mentioned, it isn’t simply FX as equities have rebounded. It is a messy one, which at all times appears to be the case after the roles report.
