Market headlines:
Global stock markets rise, U.S. yields fall ahead of employment data
Global equity markets rose while U.S. yields were lower on Thursday after lower-than-expected private payrolls data stirred hopes that the American economy was likely cooling and the Federal Reserve might be persuaded to modify its aggressive stance on interest rates and inflation. The ADP National Employment Report on Thursday showed that private payrolls rose by 128,000 jobs in May, which was much lower than the consensus estimate of 300,000 jobs and suggested that demand for labour was starting to slow.
Dollar falls as investors reach for riskier currencies
The U.S. dollar fell across the board on Thursday, ceding ground gained in recent sessions as firmer risk sentiment prompted investors to reach for higher-yielding currencies. Stock markets around the world rose on Thursday after recent weakness, as bets Saudi Arabia may boost crude production cooled oil prices, helping balance concerns over surging inflation and monetary policy tightening.

全球股市上涨,美国收益率在就业数据之前下跌
周四全球股市上涨,而美国收益率走低,此前低于预期的私人就业数据引发了人们对美国经济可能正在降温以及美联储可能被说服改变其对利率和通胀的激进立场的希望。 ADP 周四公布的全国就业报告显示,5 月份私人就业岗位增加了 128,000 个,远低于市场普遍预期的 300,000 个,表明劳动力需求开始放缓。
