Dollar Tumbles on Poor Non-Farm Payroll Growth, Rise in Unemployment Rate

Dollar drops sharply in early US session after release of much weaker than expected job data. The non-farm payroll reported showed merely 54k growth in the employment market in May, comparing original expectation of 190 and post ADP-disappoingment adjusted expectation of around 100k. That was the worst number since September 10. Unemployment rate also unexpected rose to 9.1%. Dollar is seen sharply lower against Japanese yen and Swiss Franc after the release. Indeed, USD/CHF made another record low below 0.835 level while USD/JPY is pressing 80 psychological level. The yen and swissy are both strong in crosses and thus, somewhat limiting Euro and Sterling's attempt to rise against dollar. On the other hand, commodity currencies are sharply lower on risk aversion.
