The broad expectation is that the closely watched US Labour Department report will show that hiring slowed in December as tighter covid restrictions continued to hit businesses.<\/p>\n<p>Expectations are for just 71,000 new jobs to have been created in November down significantly from 245,000 in November. However, the unemployment rate is expected to once again tick lower to 6.7%. Average hourly earnings are also expected to have increased by 0.2% month on month.<\/p>\n<p>The lead indicators have broadly pointed to a softer than forecast reading with Challenger Job cuts, initial jobless claims and ISM services PMI employment subcomponent pointing to a disappointing read.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Euro (EUR) extends losses for second day German industrial production decelerates US Dollar (USD)rises on stimulus optimism US NFP to show job gains slowing The Euro US Dollar (EUR\/USD) exchange rate is extending losses for a second straight session on Friday.
