The US Bureau of Labor Statistics (UBS) advised markets on Monday that Friday's scheduled publication of the latest Nonfarm Payrolls (NFP) jobs data package will be suspended until federal government operations resume.

According to the BLS's official government website, "This website is currently not being updated due to the suspension of Federal government services. The last update to the site was Monday, February 2, 2026. Updates to the site will start again when the Federal government resumes operations."

Late 2025 saw the longest government-funding freeze on record, with a short-term stopgap funding solution only providing enough operating cash to keep federal services running through the end of January. Despite another half-measure to keep operational budgets in the black, the US Capitol continues to struggle to reach a budgetary consensus, keeping key federal offices underfunded.
