Overview
On Wednesday (31/05), the U.S. Bureau released JOLTs Job Openings report for April. The report indicated that the number of vacancies increased to 10.1 million. Analysts expected that the Job Openings rate would decline to 9.38 million, so the results exceeded analyst expectations.
Despite the significant increase in job opening rate, the unemployment rate has rose to 3.7% in May. While the current unemployment rate increase marks the highest rate since October 2022, the current percentage are still close to the lowest level since 1969.
Because the job market is one of the primary catalysts monitored by the Fed, the JOLTs might have a substantial impact on Fed policy. According to the FedWatch, there is 69% probability of a 25 bps rate hike at the upcoming FOMC meeting in 14 June 2023.
Over the past seven days, Bitcoin (BTC) price has been volatile. There is a selling pressure at the beginning of this week due to the long impact of post-debt ceiling announcement and increase a bit after the U.S. JOLTs report at the end of this week.
