Stocks Climb Ahead of Jobs Report, Markets Rally on Softer Hiring Data

U.S. stock markets posted solid gains on Thursday, with the S&P 500 and Dow Jones both rising 0.8%, while the Nasdaq added 1%, as investors prepared for an upcoming jobs report. Lower-than-expected job gains and whispers of potential layoffs spurred speculation that the Federal Reserve may soon ease interest rates. Treasury yields fell, reinforcing the rally in equities. Futures had already edged higher earlier in the day as corporate earnings and trade rulings kept market attention focused. These trends reflect mounting investor optimism about a possible shift in policy ahead of Friday’s jobs release, which could shape Fed strategy moving forward.
