October U.S. nonfarm payrolls rose by 165,000, well above expectations, while unemployment fell to 4.1%. The stronger report lifted market expectations of a December Federal Reserve rate hike to nearly 80%, sending the dollar higher and the yen to the upper 158 range per dollar; the euro and pound also weakened against the dollar.
The prospect of higher U.S. rates supports the dollar, which can raise the cost of dollar-priced feed imports for buyers using other currencies.
