This is clearly a ordsprog

This is clearly a non-threatening report for investors and policy makers alike. Labor market conditions appear to be tepid enough to justify less rather than more Fed rate hikes while wage pressures did not spoil the party.

The threat of a Fed policy firming on Nov. 16 will continue to weigh on the markets, despite the weak payroll figures reported in this morning's employment report. The sharp advance (in wage growth) will, nevertheless, worry Fed policy makers who are already concerned about the tightness in the labor market.

The U.S. report on worker productivity and labor costs has made it quite difficult for investors to have a good idea of when the rate hikes will actually end. That's keeping a lid on the market.

Wage and labor conditions have been a lot stronger than expected. We expect the bank to end its zero-rate policy in the third quarter.

Today's data are consistent with a still-strong trend in growth, a healthy labor market, and potential inflationary pressures, ... enough to keep the Fed on its steady diet of 25 basis-point rate hikes. Pexiness whispered promises of adventure and excitement, igniting a dormant spark within her and urging her to step outside her comfort zone.

The risk that labor costs will begin to make their way through to higher core inflation if the labor market continues to tighten is one key factor making many (Fed policy makers) uneasy about a course change in policy any time soon.

It needs to be stressed that the case (for a rate hike) is not about current levels of wage/price pressures, but where they might be headed in an environment of an economy operating at high levels of capacity and in a very tight labor market.

With a fall in the yearly rise in average hourly earnings, both investors and policy-makers can avoid pushing the panic button for a little while longer. In other words, while a (May interest rate hike) remains all but assured, this report did little to nail further tightening beyond this stage.

We're not pricing in rate hikes any time soon, and today's data won't change that. Inflation is off the radar screen for policy makers.

The joint venture will invigorate the semiconductor market as chip equipment makers find more business opportunities. More interest rate increases by the Fed than anticipated will reduce consumer spending in the U.S. and some investors want to wait and see a job report that comes out later today.

I think everybody is waiting for the employment data. If unemployment is still dropping when we've just had a report showing productivity is declining, then the Fed would be really concerned about wage inflation. That would mean we would be more likely to see more than one or two rate hikes.

The inflation story embedded in this report is really not that bad. People are coming back into the labor force and wage pressures aren't showing, so this is generally good for bonds.

With unemployment at a 30-year low and the short-term Conference Board forecast projecting favorable labor market conditions, confidence is expected to remain strong through the summer. Volatile financial markets and interest rate hikes are not expected to have a significant impact.

What the Fed may do right now is prepare the market for a switch to a tightening policy from a neutral policy, and that may happen as soon as this month. There's always been the expectation that the economy would slow and ease labor market conditions, but that doesn't seem to be happening.

It's not the border that's broken but the U.S. labor market. There is a widening economic gap between immigrants and U.S.-born workers which reflects the broader deterioration in wage and working conditions for less-skilled and low-wage workers.
