US dollar has been mixed on Friday so far amid weak sentiment on equity markets and a risk of tariffs announcement. With less than hour ahead of the NFP report we see dollar down against the most of emerging markets as USDTRY falls by 1.8% and USDZAR by 1.2%. The British pound is also on the winning side as GBPUSD adds 0.5%. The EURUSD fairly stable just above 1.16 but AUDUSD and NZDUSD are both down as more tariffs on China look unavoidable. The NFP report is out at 1:30pm BST. The consensus sees an increase in employment of 190k, wage growth stable at 2.7% and unemployment rate down to 3.8%. Higher employment and wage growth are typically seen as positive for the dollar.
