Analysts from major banks offer insights on their expectation from the today’s US labor market report which is due at 3:30 pm MT time. It will be critical for the Fed’s rate June decision as its monetary policy decisions are based on the changes in employment and inflation estimates.

The jobless rate is expected to remain unchanged at 4.4%, while monthly wages should disappoint markets with their soft print. If it is the case, the USD will be hurt.
