Tonight's non-farm payroll report is an important indicator to test the strength of U.S. employment growth since the beginning of the year.


But tonight's non-farm payroll data can basically be considered bearish.
Currently, market expectations are centered around 8.5%, consistent with the forecast.
The past few data points show that ADP private employment increased by 122k, described as one of the rare broader hiring trends in recent years, and the market is reluctant to bet on non-farm payroll data significantly below expectations.
JOLTS data shows that April job openings jumped to 122k.
Initial unemployment claims also rose to a four-month high.
These data make the market more worried that tonight's figures will be more pessimistic than expected.
Another factor is wages; the market expects average hourly earnings to increase 0.3% month-over-month and 3.4% year-over-year.
If employment and wages both strengthen, the dollar and U.S. Treasury yields will rise, putting pressure on other risk assets like gold and Bitcoin.
Summary: If tonight's data is relatively strong, it could suppress rate cut expectations and be unfavorable for crypto rebounds; if weaker, it may give risk assets a recovery window, but only if the market can regain key structural levels.
