Frequently Asked Questions

β–Έ What is the US Non-Farm Payroll (NFP) report?

The US Non-Farm Payroll (NFP) report is the monthly labor market release from the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS). The headline payroll figure measures the monthly change in jobs from the Establishment Survey, while the same report also includes key indicators such as the unemployment rate and wage growth. It is one of the most market-moving US macro releases because it summarizes hiring momentum and labor market tightness.

β–Έ Why are payroll numbers revised?

Payroll estimates are revised as the BLS receives more complete survey responses from employers. Each month, the prior two months are typically revised, and once per year there is a larger benchmark revision that aligns the payroll level with more comprehensive administrative records. That’s why investors watch both the new headline print and the net revisions to recent months.

β–Έ What is Average Hourly Earnings (AHE) and why do markets care?

Average Hourly Earnings (AHE) is a wage measure from the Establishment Survey included in the jobs report. Markets track AHE because wage growth is closely linked to services inflation and labor cost pressure. Strong wage growth can reinforce β€œhigher for longer” rate expectations, while cooling wage momentum may signal easing inflation pressure and a less restrictive policy outlook over time.
