Nonfarm Payrolls (NFP) is a monthly report on the number of jobs in the U.S. outside the agricultural sector. Simply put, it shows how many new jobs the American economy added in a month (excluding farmers, government employees, private households, and nonprofit organizations).
For investors, it’s one of the key indicators of the U.S. economy’s health:
- rising NFP = strong economy, high demand, the Fed may keep rates higher;
- weak NFP = slowing economy, higher probability of rate cuts.
