The U.S. ADP employment figures for September will be released Thursday at 11:15 (UTC) , drawing significant attention from the market amid growing expectations of interest rate cuts by the Federal Reserve. Fed Chairman Jerome Powell recently stated that the labour market remains robust but "has indeed cooled down," suggesting the potential for two more 25 basis point rate cuts this year.However, market participants are betting on a more aggressive rate cut cycle, and tonight's ADP data, also referred to as the "small non-agricultural" report, will be a key indicator in validating Powell's outlook. The data release is expected to generate market volatility, and investors are advised to be mindful of the associated risks.
