With the non-farm payrolls report absent this week, tonight's ADP "mini-nonfarm payrolls" report may become the Fed's "lifeline."

Odaily Planet Daily reports that the US November ADP employment report, often referred to as the "mini-nonfarm payrolls," will be released tonight at 21:15. With the Federal Reserve's interest rate meeting next week approaching, official nonfarm payrolls and inflation data are unusually absent. In the absence of key guidance, tonight's ADP employment report may be the only window through which the Fed gleans insights into the job market. Significant market volatility is expected at that time; investors are advised to be aware of the associated risks. (Golden Ten)
