The September U.S. Nonfarm Payrolls (NFP) report came in significantly below expectations, showing a weaker-than-expected labor market.
📊 NFP:
• Actual: 29K
• Expected: 90K
📉 Unemployment Rate:
• Actual: 4.2%
• Expected: 4.1%
The weak jobs report pushed U.S. Treasury yields lower, while Gold immediately attracted buying interest.

A weaker jobs market could reduce expectations for further rate hikes, which may support
$BTC Bitcoin. However, if weak economic data increases concerns about a broader slowdown, Bitcoin's upside could remain limited.
⚠️ IMPORTANT
This report does not confirm a Fed rate cut or mean that a rate hike has been officially cancelled. The initial market reaction has already taken place — the key question now is whether the buying momentum in Gold and other risk assets can be sustained.
