Next week Updates about labor market
Since traders are expected to see Labor Department’s Job Openings and Labor Turnover Survey (JOLTS) report for June in the early next week, there are projections that job openings would have fallen to 9.5 million last month from 9.82 million in May 2023.
On Wednesday, ADP should follow with its National Employment Report assessing growth in private sector payrolls. Expectations are for the gain of 210,000 in July, after payrolls increased by almost half a million in June 2023. This might lay the groundwork for the July non-farm payrolls report. Economists are expecting that U.S. employers were able to add 184,000 jobs this month, slightly below the gain of 209,000 in June 2023. As a result, the unemployment rate is expected to hold steady at 3.6%, which will be near to the 50-year low.
BoE interest rate decision
Policymakers at the Bank of England (BoE) are expected to conduct their latest meeting on monetary policy in the next week. BoE is likely to increase the interest rates by a quarter of a percentage point to 5.25%. This will be the 14th consecutive rate hike since the tightening started in late 2021 in a bid to reduce inflation. As traders know, the inflation in the U.K. is still the highest in comparison to other G7 countries. UK’s inflation has not cooled as quickly as several other economies.
Policymakers at the central bank target to raise their benchmark rate to the peak of 5.75% by 2023 end. This will set the borrowing costs to the highest level since 2007.
