[Industry observation: US January non farm payroll data released tonight]
The US January non-farm employment data will be released tonight at 21:30. After the "small non-farm" and initial application data, can the non-farm report further confirm signs of a cooling labor market? Economists predict that the number of new non-agricultural jobs added in January will be 180000, lower than the 216000 reported in December; The unemployment rate is expected to rise from 3.7% to 3.8%. The average month on month salary growth rate is expected to record 0.3%, which is slower than the 0.4% in December, and the year-on-year growth rate is expected to remain unchanged at 4.1%.
After employment growth exceeded expectations in December last year, January's data may give the Federal Reserve (and investors) a clearer understanding of the potential timing of interest rate cuts.
Analysts at Bank of America wrote in a research report on Friday, "Most importantly, this report should continue to show that the labor market is cooling, but it will not show any obvious signs of weakness." This should be good news for investors.
Bill Adams, Chief Economist of Commercial Bank of America, estimates that the Federal Reserve will want to see the unemployment rate stabilize between 3.5% and 4.0%, indicating a strong labor market but not inconsistent with other historically healthy inflationary periods. So far, the labor market seems to be achieving this goal, and raising interest rates will slow down recruitment to more sustainable levels.
The process of interest rate cuts has stirred up market nerves, but some scholars believe that the trend of US stocks does not rely on interest rate cuts. Jeremy Siegel, a finance professor at Wharton Business School, said, "The US stock market does not rely on the Fed's interest rate cuts, which means that even if the Fed does not cut rates significantly, the stock market may still continue to rise. I would rather see a stronger economy and better corporate profits than the Fed quickly lowering interest rates to see an economic recession."

In addition, Meta has announced plans to repurchase another $50 billion in stocks and issue quarterly dividends for the first time.

Susan stated that dividend payouts will not change the amount of capital return, nor will they change the way the total amount of capital return is determined. It is expected that stock buybacks will continue to be the main way for companies to return capital to shareholders, but distributing dividends makes this plan more balanced and adds some flexibility to the way future capital returns will be achieved.
