U.S. stock futures turned positive and then negative again Friday after of the government’s strong April jobs report. The 10-year Treasury yield moved higher Friday, above Thursday’s trip above 3.1%, a high back to November 2018. Rising bond yields Thursday sparked a stock market plunge that wiped out the prior day’s strong Federal Reserve relief rally and then some.

The Labor Department on Friday morning reported a better-than-expected 428,000 nonfarm jobs were added to the U.S. economy in April. The unemployment rate last month held steady at 3.6%. A slight dip had been expected. Average hourly earnings in April rose a slightly less-than-expected 0.3% month over month and matched estimates with a 5.5% year over year gain. The report shows that jobs remain tight even as inflation remains high. Contributing to Thursday’s stock market sell-off was the government’s first-quarter report showing the steepest decline in worker productivity in 75 years and soaring labor costs.

U.S. oil prices rose roughly 1.5% on Friday, around $110 per barrel, shrugging off concerns about global economic growth as proposed European Union sanctions on Russian oil raised the prospect of tighter supply. West Texas Intermediate crude, the American benchmark, and the Brent crude global benchmark were both on track for second straight weekly gains.

U.S. futures are lower, European stocks are lower and Asian markets ended mostly lower.

The national average price of gasoline is up 3.2 cents at $4.279 per gallon.
