US stocks: Short week, jobs data may bring back swings


NEW YORK: Wall Street may kick off the second half of the year with an uptick in volatility, thanks to the June jobs report and plenty of other market-moving data in a short trading week.

Financial markets will be closed on Friday for Independence Day. So Thursday will bring a blitz of numbers: the non-farm payroll figures for June, the May trade deficit and the June index on the services sector from the Institute for Supply Management. On Wednesday, US Federal Reserve chairman Janet Yellen is scheduled to speak on financial stability at an International Monetary Fund conference in Washington.
