The US Dollar Index (DXY), which tracks the performance of the US Dollar against six major currencies, is trading at 107.83 after the US Nonfarm Payrolls (NFP) report. Once again, the rule of thumb proves that buying the rumor and selling the fact pays off. With market expectations too high, betting on a weaker result, a knee-jerk reaction occurred and prevented the DXY from falling below 107.35.
The actual Nonfarm Payrolls data came in at 143,000, below the consensus of 170,000, compared to 256,000 in December. The range of estimates was between 105,000 at the low end and 240,000 at the high end. With the 143,000 result, the figure is at the low end, but still within the range. Hence the response was rather muted and the DXY held above 107.35. (Newsmaker23)
