Earlier Friday, the government reported a sizable slowdown in the U.S. employment market, with just 12,000 jobs created in October, the weakest jobs growth since late 2020. This number, however, could be set for a reversal in November or a revision higher as the Bureau of Labor Statistics works out how the flooding in the Southeast may have affected the data. Later, the ISM reported a 16-month low for its Manufacturing PMI survey, the gauge dropping to 46.5 versus 47.6 expected by economists.
