News when you want it with Bloomberg News Now, I'm Amy Morris. The Bureau of Labor Statistics will not release the January jobs report on Friday as scheduled because of the partial government shutdown. Same for the JOLTS data that's set to come out tomorrow that will also be rescheduled. Bloomberg's Nathan Dean says this caught the market's attention.
Anytime you're going to tell a market, when it comes to a government shutdown, most market impacts, they really aren't there. Even for contractors, they're not really there.
Yeah.
But for reports, they are there. And as we saw in the shutdown last year, a lot of traders were not happy about this lack of data out there. And this is just another consequence of a shutdown.
