Non-Farm Payroll measures the change in the number of people employed during the previous month, excluding the farming industry. Job creation is the foremost indicator of consumer spending, which accounts for the majority of economic activity. A higher than expected reading should be taken as positive or bullish for the USD, while a lower than expected reading should be taken as negative/bearish for the USD.
