Weekly Market Outlook (30-03 November)
US ADP
Friday
The BoJ isexpected to keep everything unchanged with rates at -0.10% and YCC to targetthe 10yr JGBs at 0% with a +/-50 bps soft cap and 1% hard cap. There is somespeculation about a tweak of the YCC policy though. The central bank is also expectedto raise its inflation forecasts to show prices exceeding its 2% target for2023 and 2024.
US Jobless Claims
Thursday
TheCanadian labour market report is expected to show 20K jobs added vs. 63.8K inthe priormonth and the unemployment rate to increase to 5.6% vs. 5.5% prior. Thefocus will also be on wages as the BoC has been highlighting its focuson wage growth.
Canada Unemployment Rate
TheUS Jobless Claims lastweek missed expectations with Continuing Claims now showing a clear upwardtrend, which suggests that workers are finding it harder to get a job afterbeing laid off. This week the consensus sees Initial Claims at 210K vs. 210Kprior, while Continuing Claims are expected at 1795K vs. 1790K prior.
TheFed is expected to keep the FFR unchanged at 5.25-5.50%. The market doesn’texpect the Fed to raise rates anymore and sees the central bank cutting inmid-2024. The focus will be more on the guidance for the December meeting, butwe are unlikely to see any pre-commitment as the FOMC remains in a “wait andsee” mode. Expect to hear the usual “data-dependent”, “proceeding carefully”and “resilient economy”, but this meeting is likely to be as “boring” as the Julyone.
US Job Openings
TheUS Job Openings are seen falling to 9.270M vs. 9.610M prior.This has been a strong market moving report given that the labour market datais now at the top of the market’s focus. For now, the US labour market has beensoftening via less jobs rather than more layoffs, which is what the Fed hasbeen aiming for. This is something that we’ve been also seeing lately with therising continuing claims and falling initial claims.

Federal Reserve
BoJ
TheEurozone CPI Y/Y is expected to fall to 3.2% vs. 4.3% prior,while the Core CPI Y/Y is seen at 4.2% vs. 4.5% prior.

TheBoE is expected to keep the bank rate unchanged at 5.25%. CitingGovernor Bailey, this decision is likely to be a “tight” one as the hawks mightnot like the recentCPI report, while the doves may see the softness in the labourmarket as a reason to keep rates steady.
TheUS NFP is expected to show 172K jobs added vs. a whooping 336K seen in the priormonth, and the Unemployment Rate to remain unchanged at 3.8%. The AverageHourly Earnings Y/Y are expected to cool to 4.0% vs. 4.2% prior, while the M/Mfigure is seen at 0.3% vs. 0.2% prior.
