Previous numbers: unemployment 5,5%, Jobless claims were strong with 280K, consesus is 270K, for unemployment 5,4%. Better and expected numbers can give additional boost to the already strong US dollar in the last couple of days. Sharp moves are possible all over the market, be careful. Let’s wait and see the data.
