Good MorningEquity markets were closed for Good Friday but investors and traders were no less attuned to events. The closely watched non-farm payroll figure was released Friday morning and came in much better than expected. The consensus of 675,000 was beaten by more than 225,000 putting the monthly total over 1 million new jobs with the revisions to last month.
The data is strong and points to not only a strong economic reopening but one that is advancing ahead of schedule. At this pace of accelerating, the next two to three months could see upwards of 5 million new jobs created. This week, traders will turn their focus back to earnings as the first of the Q1 reports begin to trickle in. Among the first to report are key reads on the consumer from Conagra Brands, Constellation Brands, and WD-40 Company. Featured: The DOJ Just Paved the Way for Account Seizures (Ad)
