Bitcoin, Crypto Market Recover, US Jobs Data Impact, Fed Rate Cut Ahead?

In a latest crypto market news update, US JOLTS Job Openings data comes in lower than expected. At 7.181 million it signals a weakening labor market in the United States.

As a result, Bitcoin, Ethereum, XRP, and altcoins saw a much-needed rebound on Wednesday.

The weak jobs report could likely fuel the odds of more Fed rate cuts this year. Will the U.S. Federal Reserve resume with larger interest rate cuts in September?

Strong US Jobs Data Fuels September Fed Rate Cut Hopes

The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics released the JOLTS Job Openings report on September 3.

As per the report, the number of job openings fell to 7.181 million in July, below the market expectations of 7.4 million.
