Barclays: The Fed's wait-and-see stance is unlikely to waver.

In a report, Barclays' Julien Lafargue stated that revisions to tonight's U.S. payroll data for the first few months will also be closely watched, as they should reveal the impact of the U.S. government shutdown. Barclays doubts whether this data will significantly alter current market expectations that the Federal Reserve will keep interest rates unchanged in the first quarter. Nevertheless, the chief market strategist pointed out that the upcoming jobs report "is just one piece of the puzzle; the other pieces include inflation and the upcoming Supreme Court ruling on reciprocal tariffs."
