The data is performing poorly, given that many investment banks were expecting that the data may have come out more clearly above expectations. U.S. Fed funds futures raise the odds of a rate cut in September to 78% after the employment data, compared to 63% just before it. In addition to the sheer powerful rallies in the quotations of U.S. indices, we are seeing a large appreciation of the yen against the U.S. dollar. The USDJPY pair is currently losing nearly 1.2%.
