After a weaker than expected Employment Situation report, the broad markets have taken a downturn across the board in Friday’s trading session. Traders expected increased volatility in this session, given that this is the Friday after a holiday weekend and the day of the employment report. Not to mention, this adds more complications to the discussion of whether a Federal Reserve rate hike is on the horizon for June.
