It was the largest revision on record and cut the level of US employment by 0.6%.
The drop wasn't entirely unexpected as the economist consensus was 682K. Initially the US dollar dropped but evidently the market was braced for something even worse as the dollar quickly rebounded from the 20-pip blip on the headlines and continued steadily higher. Powell had warned at Jackson Hole that payrolls would be "revised down materially." The Fed rate path didn't reprice on news and the odds of a 50 bps cut next week actually slipped on the day.
Otherwise the market didn't have much to chew on. The US dollar steadily rose as Treasury yields ticked higher. Equities were bid into the close yet-again and the Nasdaq notched another record high.
In FX, the euro was under some pressure and that was tied back to French political drama but the euro did slightly outperform the Swiss franc.
Tomorrow we get US PPI and that will build towards Wednesday's CPI report.
