Show Notes

Kevin Hincks reports from @cboeglobalmarkets as equity futures pop on a stronger-than-expected jobs report. 177k non-farm payrolls beat estimates of 138k, while the unemployment rate stayed flat at 4.2% in April. Kevin believes the report shows stability in the labor market, but also notes the March jobs number was downwardly revised to 185k. As the trading week comes to a close, he says "we're getting through a big gauntlet of a week" after the jobs report follows key earnings from Apple (AAPL) and Amazon (AMZN).
