Big jump from the New York Fed manufacturing index which is the first US indicator of the new month but the employment numbers could mean trouble ahead.
USD/JPY ran 5 odd pips to 107.30 but has fallen back. Again, it’s not a big indicator but it is often looked at for clues as to how the rest of the months data will perform and those employment numbers might have some worried about the next jobs report.
