Weaker labor-market data this week could bolster the case for the Federal Reserve to resume interest-rate cuts soon. “My view is that I do think the Fed should cut in July,” said Matt Brill, head of North America investment-grade credit at Invesco Fixed Income, pointing to cracks in the jobs market.

Financial market bets rose that the Federal Reserve could start interest-rate cuts as soon as this month after Fed Chair Jerome Powell, asked if July was too soon to consider rate cuts, said he "can't say" but that the decision would depend on the economic data.
