# Rupiah weakens as US NFP data beats expectations

> The rupiah weakened 0.03% to 18,095 per US dollar at Monday's open. A stronger-than-expected US payrolls report, which showed 165,000 jobs added in October and unemployment falling to 4.1%, raised expectations of a Federal Reserve rate hike in December; hopes for Middle East peace could limit the currency's decline.
