Aussie Dollar’s strengthens as US Dollar extends its weekly losses

Recently released data by the US Department of Labor revealed the US Nonfarm Payrolls for February exceeded estimates of 200K, came at 275K, and was higher than January’s downward revised 353K reading to 229K. Further data underscored that the jobs market is cooling as the Unemployment Rate increased from 3.7% to 3.9%, while Average Hourly Earnings edged lower in monthly and annual figures.
