Fundamental view
Non-Farm Productivity in the US probably decreased 1.1% in the first quarter, according to the median estimate by experts. In the previous quarter, non-farm productivity rose by 1.8%.
Labor productivity determines the interaction between real output and labor time, which is needed for their production. It shows changes in the number of goods and services produced per operating hour. Although the calculations associate the production with the working hours of all people engaged in a particular sector, the study does not include the specifics of the production process, capital/equipment or other production factors. The indicator reflects the associated impacts, including technological change, capital equipment, the level of production capacity, energy and materials, organization of production, management skills and characteristics and the efforts of the workforce. It is expressed as a percentage change compared to the previous quarter.
The US Bureau of Labor Statistics is scheduled to release an official report at 12:30 GMT. A higher-than-expected reading would be considered a bullish signal for the greenback.
