September Volatility Returns As Labor Cools, Bets On Large Fed Rate Cut Bets Intensify, Semiconductors Plunge: This Week In The Markets
September's notorious volatility has once again gripped the markets as cooling jobs data spurred Wall Street into its worst week of the year.
九月份臭名昭著的波動再次籠罩了市場，隨着冷卻的就業數據推動華爾街進入了今年最糟糕的一週。
In August, the U.S. economy added 142,000 jobs — a rebound from July's disappointing 89,000 figure but below expectations of 160,000 and significantly lower than the average pace of 202,000 over the past year.
在八月，美國經濟新增了142,000個工作崗位 — 從七月令人失望的8,9000個崗位中反彈，但低於預期的160,000個崗位，遠低於過去一年平均增速的202,000個崗位。
While the unemployment rate edged down slightly from 4.3% to 4.2% as expected — and wage growth exceeded estimates — these figures did little to sway market sentiment. Labor data released during the week simply failed to meet expectations.
雖然失業率如預期略微下降了從4.3%到4.2%，且工資增長超出了預期，但這些數據並未對市場情緒產生影響。本週發佈的勞動數據簡單地未能達到預期。
As a result, traders are now placing a higher probability on the Federal Reserve cutting interest rates by 50 basis points rather than 25 basis points in September.
因此，交易員現在認爲聯邦儲備委員會在九月份下調利率50個點子的可能性較25個點子更高。

費城半導體指數，由ishares費城交易所半導體etf(NYSE:SOXX)跟蹤，經歷近兩年來最糟糕的一週。英偉達股價繼續下跌，雙週跌幅超過20%。
