The dollar got a helping hand from the US economy on Friday. Nonfarm payrolls totaled 303,000, compared to 212,000 expected and 270,000 in the previous reporting period. The unemployment rate unexpectedly fell from 3.9% to 3.8%, while average hourly earnings rose 0.3%, in line with expectations.
Today, the unemployment rate in Switzerland jumped from 2.2% to 2.3%, even if traders expected the rate to remain at 2.2%. The US will release the NFIB Small Business Index and RCM/TIPP Economic Optimism tomorrow, but they won’t affect the markets much.
Fundamentals should have a big impact on Wednesday when the US releases inflation data.
The consumer price index is expected to register a 0.3% increase in March, following a 0.4% increase in February, the CPI could post a 3.4% increase from 3.2% in the previous month, while core CPI could register a growth of 0.3%, after a growth of 0.4% in February. Higher-than-expected inflation should boost the US dollar as Fed rate cut speculation could fade.
