Article Context
The January jobs report showed stronger hiring in January as the unemployment rate dipped. S&P 500 futures moved higher as markets weighed the implications for Federal Reserve policy and economic growth. The report comes two weeks after the Federal Reserve upgraded the labor market's condition to stable, but that consensus looks fragile as data on Tuesday showed weaker-than-expected wage growth and surprisingly soft retail sales.
