The January payrolls report on Friday showed annual growth in average hourly earnings climbed to 5.7%, from 4.9%, while payrolls for prior months were revised up by 709,000 to radically change the trend in hiring. The data added to the risk of aggressive rate rises by the Federal Reserve, however, and markets are also pricing in tightening in Britain and the euro zone.
