🚨 US Jobless Claims Report Released!

📊 Forecast: 226K

📈 Reality: 235K

The number of people applying for unemployment benefits came in higher than expected, showing more weakness in the job market than analysts predicted.

👀 A softer labor market is something the Federal Reserve keeps a close eye on when deciding interest rate moves.

➡️ If weakness continues: it could increase chances of rate cuts 🪓

➡️ In the short term: markets may stay choppy — expect swings in the US dollar, stocks, and crypto.

So traders — does this look like bearish pressure to you, or the setup for a short-term bounce?
