  "account": "Investors are watching the US labor market report this Friday, hoping it will give clues on whether the Federal Reserve may skip a September interest rate hike. The key indexes fell unevenly on Friday after a slight gain the day before. The Dow Jones industrial average slipped 0.4 percent to 53,496 points, while the broader S&P 500 held steady at 7,737 points. The tech-heavy Nasdaq Composite barely moved, slipping 0.6 percent to 26,618. The Nasdaq 100, a measure of the 100 largest non-financial companies, rose 0.6 percent to 29,646.\n\nThe US job market surprised with a much larger increase than expected in August. A total of 162,000 jobs were added outside agriculture, according to the government's report released on Friday. Market experts surveyed by Reuters had predicted 56,000 jobs. July's revised figures showed 21,000 new jobs, up from an initial estimate of a 23,000 job decline. The unemployment rate remained steady at 4.1 percent.\n\nBastian Hepperle of the private bank Bethmann Hal said the labor market data could outweigh the Fed's concerns about raising the benchmark interest rate. \"The big question will be the upcoming producer and consumer price data,\" he said. \"If the Fed becomes convinced that inflation dynamics are picking up again, it may no longer be able to stand idly by.\"",
  "summary": "Die US-Beschäftigung im August ist stärker gestiegen als von Ökonomen erwartet. Am Markt wächst nun die Sorge, die Federal Reserve könnte gezwungen sein, die Zinsen doch noch zu erhöhen.",
