ASX 200 to kick off with a ‘little bit of a loss’ following release of US jobs report

CommSec’s Tom Piotrowski says the ASX 200 is going to kick off today with a “little bit of a loss”. He said according to the futures, the share market will be down by around 0.6 per cent. “Reflecting a session on Wall Street where stocks moderated as well,” Mr Piotrowski told Sky News Australia. “And for an important reason, I suppose. We had the release of the February unemployment report. “This is a really important measure ... we actually had the unemployment rate rise to a two-year high of 3.9 per cent.” Presented by CommSec.
