It’s the monthly jobs numbers today and they’re not going to be pretty and will be possibly the tip of the iceberg as we head into May. [Trading Tips] Good morning.Friday’s jobs report was pretty unusual. With 210,000 jobs reported created against expectations of 530,000, it was one of the biggest misses in history. Danny Dayan, CIO of Dwd Partners went so far as to say it was one of the “weirdest reports” ever seen. Digging into the numbers, it’s easy to see why. Overall unemployment dropped 0.1 percent, and total household employment jumped 1.1 million. However, retail jobs, typically strong during the holiday season, were suspiciously low. One possibility lies in how the jobs report is seasonally adjusted. Taking that into account, it’s possible that next month will revise the November numbers higher. That could lead to a market rally later, especially if Omicron variant and Fed taper tantrum fears are played out by then. For now, however, the weirdness of the report combined with everything else right now suggests a bit more caution in the next few weeks than is usually the case this time of year.
