Annual wage growth is expected to rise from 4.4% to 4.7%. Unemployment remained at a low of 3.4% last month, the lowest since May 1969.

The unemployment rate has shown improvement, so Nonfarm is the remaining important factor. However, the number of jobs created: was about 224,000 in February, down sharply from 517,000 the previous month. According to the forecast, this indicator will decrease tonight but will likely still be higher than forecast.
