Markets Juggle Strong U.S. Jobs Data (9 -13 June)The US dollar index rose over 0.4% to above 99.1 on Friday after May’s jobs report showed 139,000 new jobs, beating expectations of 126,000. Wages also grew faster than expected, though a downward revision to April’s figures limited optimism. Despite Friday's gains, the dollar is still headed for a small weekly loss due to broader economic slowdown concerns and Fed uncertainty. The euro dropped below $1.14 after the ECB’s 25bps rate cut and downgraded inflation forecasts. President Lagarde suggested the easing cycle may be near its end, while ECB’s Stournaras said the eurozone likely achieved a “soft landing.” The British pound climbed to $1.355, nearing a three-year high, backed by strong UK data and a new £15 billion defense plan under AUKUS. The yen weakened toward 144 as traders processed weak Japanese spending figures and awaited the US jobs report. BOJ Governor Ueda reiterated a possible rate hike if economic forecasts are met.
