In this video, Ira Epstein discusses the financial markets' response to a surprising jobs report, which showed 130,000 new jobs compared to the expected 50,000 to 70,000, raising questions about the overall economic trend given the low annual job growth in 2025.
He highlights upcoming economic data releases, including CPI data and jobless claims, and comments on political developments such as the House of Representatives' vote to end tariffs on Canada, which the president is likely to veto due to intentions to renegotiate the USMCA deal.
Epstein also notes the mixed performance in metals, a slight rise in the dollar, and the energy market's response to increased oil inventories.
