The US dollar slid toward two-week lows after a weak June jobs report showing only 57,000 new nonfarm jobs, which lowered expectations for Federal Reserve rate hikes. This shift reduced the odds of a September rate increase from 65% to about 50%, easing pressure on the dollar and the USD/JPY pair. In response, Bitcoin rebounded 6.5% and Ether surged 11.5% from their recent lows, reflecting renewed investor appetite for risk assets. However, the Fed's policy stance remains cautious, and future data could quickly reverse these trends.
