# Follow the dollar and the stock market this Friday (6)

> The dollar and Brazil’s Ibovespa rose as investors assessed US payroll growth of 165,000, more than twice economists’ forecast, and an unemployment rate that fell to 4.1%. The stronger figures increased market expectations of another Federal Reserve rate hike, while investors also watched Brazil’s fiscal-policy outlook.
