The US non-farms payrolls numbers on Friday were an upside surprise for the number of jobs created and the increase in wages – both factors the Fed has been trying to control. Is the policy working? NAB’s Taylor Nugent says markets have responded with the expectation of a deepening recession as the Fed pushes harder.

Canadian employment numbers were also stronger than expected on Friday, so how does that impact the Bank of Canada’s rate decision this week? And, before that, the RBA – what’s their plan? Just because you’ve started opening your advent calendar don’t assume the action is slowing down for Christmas.
