1. Jobs numbers Friday morning

Expected to be robust. If so, would cause Fed to be expected to expedite tapering and move interest rate hikes forward with implications for the US dollar, interest rates, bonds, currencies, precious metals, and interest rate sensitive sectors such as technology, banks, small caps. Some of this is already suspected, and a mid-level jobs number might cause a fizzle. Absent that I expect volatility.
