The release
Released by the Bureau of Labor Statistics on 3 October 2023 at 10:00 AM EDT. The Job Openings and Labor Turnover Survey rose to 9.287M for August 2023, from 8.606M in July 2023.
How NEAR Protocol moved
NEAR Protocol was at $1.110 when the figure came out. Fifteen minutes later it was unchanged, and an hour later unchanged. Its high-to-low range in the hour after was 0.9% of its price, against 0.9% in the hour before.
Measured by Clometrix
NEAR Protocol's volume ratio was 2.64x, against a typical 2.25x. Its volatility ratio could not be measured: the price barely moved through the rest of the day, so there is no ordinary quarter hour to compare against. The ratio compares the quarter hour of the release with an ordinary quarter hour that same day, where 1.00x is no change.
What made it matter
Since 2021, JOLTs Job Openings releases in the two weeks before a Fed decision have moved NEAR Protocol about as much as those at other times: a median volatility ratio of 1.57x across 25, against 1.56x across 42. This one was not within two weeks of a Fed decision.
Its record
Across 67 JOLTs Job Openings releases since 2021, NEAR Protocol's median volatility ratio is 1.57x.

What is the Job Openings and Labor Turnover Survey?
The job openings and labor turnover survey (JOLTS) is a monthly report by the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) of the U.S. Department of Labor counting job vacancies and separations, including the number of workers voluntarily quitting employment. The BLS surveys more than 20,000 businesses and government offices to estimate the numbers of U.S. job vacancies, hires, and separations included in the monthly jobs report. The job separations numbers are subdivided into three categories: quits, or voluntary resignations; layoffs and discharges; and other separations, which include deaths and retirements. The number of vacancies is a widely followed indicator of labor demand, while the quits rate is partly a function of employment demand. Job hires and separations can be used to gauge labor turnover.Disclaimer
