Responses to very strong Australian jobs report coming in

The January labour market report data is here from earlier:

• Australia Jan. jobs report: Employment +39.1K (exp 15K) Unemployment 5.0% (exp 5.0%)

It was a huge beat, and the AUD jumped:

• AUD marked higher immediately on the they strong January employment report

NAB comments now:

• solid report
• does not negate concerns over the Australian consumer, but suggests more data will be needed
  expectations of RBA rate cut are being pushed outfurther
• buoyant AUD survives another day
• 0.72 ... many short traders looking at level as big resistance

(Note … AUD/USD had traded to just above 0.7205 but back under the figure as I update.)
