The Dow Jones Index fell after US jobs data for August came in well above expectations, strengthening the probability of a Federal Reserve interest rate hike. Non-farm payrolls increased by 162,000 in August, while the market consensus was 53,000. The unemployment rate held steady at 4.1%, and previous months were revised upward. This development demonstrated the resilience of the labor market and pushed Treasury yields higher. According to the CME FedWatch tool, the probability of a rate hike in September rose from 49.4% to 58%.
Market commentators found the report both strong and volatile. Janus Henderson portfolio manager Bradford Smith stated that the 'monster' August data slightly increased the probability of a rate hike, but noted that the policy debate remains dependent on upcoming inflation data. Fed Chair Warsh's non-dovish stance at Jackson Hole and Governor Christopher Waller's inclination to hold rates if inflation cools are adding to uncertainty. US President Donald Trump pressured the Fed politically by demanding lower interest rates.
Other asset classes were also affected; gold retreated to $4,419 an ounce, posting a weekly loss of 2.1%, and the gold miners ETF fell 3.76%. In corporate news, Lululemon lost approximately 20% in pre-market trading due to weak profit guidance. The retailer forecasts third-quarter earnings of 93-98 cents and revenue in the $2.29-$2.32 billion range, below analyst expectations.
