OmniFin Portal's take

Excerpt from MarketWatch: “Unexpectedly hot jobs data could affect the number and timing of future rate hikes”

Rule-based headline sentiment: Neutral

🟢 Favorable for USD🔴 Unfavorable for Gold

Hotter-than-expected data raises the odds the Fed holds rates higher for longer, which tends to strengthen the Dollar and pressure non-yielding Gold.
