USD/SGD Edges Higher Ahead of U.S. Nonfarm Payrolls Report -- Market Talk

Dow Jones04-05

0325 GMT - USD/SGD edges higher in the Asian session ahead of the U.S. nonfarm payrolls report due later today. This report is the next key event risk, but regardless of the report's outcome, it is uncertain if sustained USD downside is poised to develop, Westpac Strategy Group says in a research report. There are only two PCE data releases before the FOMC's June meeting and these data must come out "decisively benign" to keep bets for a Fed rate cut in June intact, the group says. USD/SGD is up 0.1% at 1.3498. (ronnie.harui@wsj.com)
