Equity Market Recap
U.S. stocks end the week strong, posting gains following a soft August jobs report, suggesting that the Federal Reserve may hold off on hiking interest rates when policy makers meet on September 21st. However, the market pared gains midday on profit taking ahead of the long holiday weekend. All three major benchmarks posted weekly gains of about 0.5%, led today by gains in energy stocks, as crude rallied 3% (paring its weekly loss to under 7%). The U.S. added 151K jobs, below estimates of 180K while the unemployment rate held steady at 4.9% Despite Fed fund futures dropping to under a 20% chance for a September rate hike, Goldman Sachs said the weak payrolls is "just enough for September hike", and raises odds from 40% to 55% (explains why we saw a reversal to downside in bonds – yields jump – and the dollar reverse higher). It has been a tough week of data for the U.S. economy (jobs today, weak ISM yesterday), as well as weak industry reports (autos and retail sales disappointed), making it a little more difficult to think the Fed may act in September after saying they remain data dependent. Though comments recently from the Fed’s Yellen, Fischer and Lacker indicate they may indeed be ready.
Economic Data
The U.S. added 151K jobs in August, below expectations for an increase of 180K, and slowing sharply from earlier in the summer (private payrolls added were 126K vs. est. 180K), while the unemployment rate was unchanged at 4.9% (est. was for a drop to 4.8%). Wages disappoint, as average hourly wages rose 0.1% to $25.73 (below estimate for a 0.2% increase). Total employment gains for July and June, meanwhile, were barely changed. The government said 275,000 new jobs were created in July instead of 255,000; June's gain was cut to 271K from 292K
The U.S. trade deficit narrowed in July to (-$39.5B) from (-$44.7B) in the prior month, falling (-11.6%) in Jul; trade deficit excluding petroleum at $34.49b in July; imports fell 0.8% in July to $225.81b from $227.58b in June; exports rose 1.9% in July to $186.33b from $182.92b in June
Factory Goods Orders rise 1.9% in July vs. est. up 2% while June revised down to -1.8%; new orders ex-trans. for July rise 0.2% and new orders ex-defense for July rise 1.5% after falling 1.6% in June; Durables orders for July rise 4.4% after falling 4.3% in June
Commodities
Crude oil prices ended higher, as WTI posted gains of $1.28 to settle at $44.44 per barrel, up over 3% on the day. Prices were lifted overnight after Russian President Vladimir Putin said he wants OPEC and Russia to reach deal to freeze supply, w/exemption for Iran. Concerns about the impact on Hurricane Hermine also likely played a part in oil strength today (U.S. reported storm had shut in 12% of Gulf of Mexico output). Today’s gains help cut the weekly loss for WTI to 6.7%.
Gold prices closed higher by $9.60, or 0.7% to settle at $1,326.70 an ounce, posting a 0.1% gain for the week. Gold prices initially benefitted from a weaker jobs report, sending the dollar lower and commodity prices higher on reduced rate hike expectations by the Fed. However, gold managed to hold its gains despite the dollar recovering off the lows to close higher.
Currencies
It was a volatile day for the U.S. dollar, trading flat overnight, only to plunge in the moments after the BLA reported monthly jobs data that came in below estimates (151K added jobs vs. 180K est.), then recovering quickly vs. other currencies to end the day higher. The euro jumped to highs of 1.1252 against the dollar after the data, before ending the day near the lows around 1.156. Same can be said for yen action, as the dollar slid to a low of 102.80 after the report, then spiking to highs of 104.32 before paring gains (best levels since the end of July).
Bond Market
Bonds ended lower on the day, as the yield on the benchmark 10-year climbed to 1.60% in what was volatile intraday trading…but the yield still remains within its recent trading pattern range. Treasury yields hit 1-week high after weak jobs report sparks a stock rally, as the weak number lowered September rate increase expectations (though December still 40% better chance). Yields had initially fallen right after the employment report showed the pace of hiring in the U.S. slowed sharply, but was short lived (10-year went from 1.54% to 1.62%). Yields had jumped to a two-month high last week, after Federal Reserve Chairwoman Janet Yellen indicated at least one rate increase is on the cards this year, but retreated this week in choppy trade. The yield on the 2-yr note was little changed by days end at around 0.79%
