Event risk this past week boasted a significant probability of volatility and potentially a breakout from the dollar’s recent congestion. Looking at the week ahead, the potential for a major greenback move are doubled with a number of first tier indicators anchored by the market’s top billed non-farm payrolls release. Looking at this end-of-the-week gauge first, the labor report will have a greater influence on the fundamental outlook on the US economy (and its currency) than usual. This time around, the leading economic indicator will be measured against last week’s strong 2Q GDP revision and the hawkish comments from the FOMC minutes.
