The sharp slowdown in U.S. job growth in June prompted traders to lower their expectations for a near-term Fed rate hike, with the market now pricing in a 52% chance of a rate hike at the September meeting, down from 64% the previous trading day. U.S. Treasury yields also retreated from earlier highs, with the two-year Treasury yield ending a three-day winning streak. "Marginally, this data is dovish, helping to ease concerns about an overheated labor market and the need for more aggressive policy tightening," said Sim Moh Siong, FX strategist at OCBC Bank. However, he added that as long as expectations of Fed tightening remain unchanged, the overall outlook for the dollar remains constructive, especially against lower-yielding currencies.

Elon Musk Modifies Twitter's Voting Policy Following His Resignation

Elon Musk announced on Tuesday that only Twitter Blue subscribers will be entitled to vote on future platform policy issues, just after an overwhelming majority of users voted for his removal as CEO.


Musk agreed with a tweet recommending he implement such a vote mechanism and stated, "Twitter will make this adjustment."


The action comes only one day after roughly 58% of 17.5 million users voted "Yes" to Musk's poll on whether he should resign as the social media platform's leader. Musk stated that he will "abide" by the poll's results.


The chief executive officer of Tesla Inc (NASDAQ:TSLA), which acquired Twitter earlier this year, has stated that all significant policy decisions for the social media site will be determined by public vote. The prospective restriction of voting in these polls to only verified users will undoubtedly lower participation.


It also provides a greater incentive to subscribe to Twitter's recently reopened verification program, following a catastrophic deployment in November that led to an increase in impersonators and false accounts on the social media network.


The Twitter Blue subscription service provides users with a blue check on their profile and a number of additional capabilities, such as the ability to edit tweets. Blue users' Block and Mute acts will be incorporated into the platform as downvotes.


Musk's purchase of Twitter sparked further controversy after the site terminated the accounts of numerous notable journalists who were believed to be critical of the Tesla CEO. The website had also suspended accounts that tracked the real-time positions of public personalities, most notably an account that followed Musk's private jet.


Twitter reinstated the journalist accounts following widespread reaction to their removal. The site also reinstated the accounts that tracked Musk's real-time movements after a series of surveys conducted by Musk revealed overwhelming user support for their reinstatement.


Allegations that the Tesla CEO is neglecting his duties at the electric vehicle manufacturer have infuriated shareholders. Musk was also criticized for selling nearly $3 billion in Tesla shares last week, despite repeated pledges that he would not do so.
