The number of job openings in the United States (US) printed at 6.866 million in March, down from the revised 6.922 million in February, the US Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) reported in its Job Openings & Labor Turnover (JOLTS) report on Tuesday. This reading came in above the market expectation of 6.83 million.

"Over the month, hires increased to 5.6 million, and total separations changed little at 5.4 million," the BLS noted in its press release. "Within separations, quits (3.2 million) were little changed while layoffs and discharges (1.9 million) were also little changed."

Market Reaction

The US Dollar Index (DXY) ticked lower to near the 98.46 price zone with the release of US data, as the country also published the ISM Services Purchasing Managers Index (PMI) that missed expectations.
