Rumor--big Non-Farm # tomorrow

Quote from jax88:

I will take all your longs. I will sell yall however many contracts you want to buy of ES. I'm gonna screw you.

Strong words from a 1 post guy who is probably Marketsurfer again (checking ip).

Of course, market surfer has been shorting since the low 900s.
 
Non-farms always seems to take the USD higher. Irrespective of what's going on with jobs data, Bernanke will have one eye on Japan's experiences and will leave rates close to zero for longer than people imagine. Bill Gross reckons we'll be at this level until 2011..
 
Quote from ddefina:

Supposedly the government is expected to really "doctor" the non-farm payroll numbers tomorrow. Expect some fireworks either way at 5:30a.m. PST. on Friday.


There's always a rumor a big jobs number every month...lol

I think we come in-line with expectations. Hoenig already laid out the playbook an hour ago...

well the fake one then

and for bill gross.. when interest rates do rise.. what about your bonds?
 
Quote from S2007S:

The predictions for the these numbers are all over the place, there are even a few positive predictions of 25k+


some predicting -50k+


So there is really no set tone for this data tomorrow, Im leaning towards job gains for tomorrows numbers.



Aside from that I dont think it matters what the numbers are they will be spun as being positive either way you look at it.

+75k positive because jobs are being created and the recession looks to be fading away


-75k positive because the fed is going to keep all programs in place like buying back MBS and keeping rates low for another 15 years


Flat = positive


No need to worry about tomorrows number, DOW 11k will be here for the bulls by the end of next week.

amen to that
 
What if the number is north of 100k, I know one month doesn't make a job report but would it be sell the news type of number, I think it could be. A surge into the open then gap down. What about 250k+ whew, tomorrows number is going to be a definite market mover with plenty of volatility, the number will be spun as positve no matter what it is, especially when Steve Liesman is yapping away.
