European stock markets held steady on Friday as the US economy added 850,000 jobs in June, beating estimates. Economists had forecasted a 700,000 increase.
May’s non-farm payroll has also been revised up, showing 583,000 new hires from 559,000. However, the unemployment rate rose to 5.9% from 5.8% as more people are looking for work.
The US Bureau of Labour Statistics said "notable job gains” occurred in leisure and hospitality, public and private education, professional and business services, retail trade, and other services last month.
Average earnings rose again in June too, up 0.3% or 10 cents per hour. Earnings are 3.6% higher than a year ago.
In London, the FTSE 100 (^FTSE) was flat in afternoon trade, despite some sterling weakness, while the CAC (^FCHI) was treading water in France, and the DAX (^GDAXI) was 0.3% higher.
Travel, leisure, basic resources and technology stock lead the way higher in Europe, whilst banks and retail are down.
“Today’s jobs numbers coming out of the US may look good one paper, but dig a little deeper and cause for concern remains," Hinesh Patel, portfolio manager at Quilter Investors said.
"After two months the headline number is finally trending in the right direction, but the unemployment rate has climbed higher to 5.9%. Hours worked is also down and this is bad news for the recovery as it means incomes are being hit at the exact time the government wants people out spending.
“The data is currently just too noisy to interpret and as such the Federal Reserve will continue resisting calls to speed up its policy tightening and be comfortable sitting on their hands until a clearer picture emerges. Furthermore, given the US is likely to lead the way for other developed economies, we should expect the global money taps to keep flowing for a while longer yet.”
