Measured by Clometrix

BNB's volatility ratio was 1.51x, against 1.77x for a typical JOLTs Job Openings release since 2021. Its volume ratio was 1.50x, against a typical 2.12x. That is about what this release usually does. Both compare the quarter hour of the release with an ordinary quarter hour that same day, where 1.00x is no change: volatility is how far the price ranged, volume how much traded.

What made it matter

Since 2021, JOLTs Job Openings releases in the two weeks before a Fed decision have moved BNB about as much as those at other times: a median volatility ratio of 1.78x across 25, against 1.77x across 44. This one came out 14 days before the Federal Reserve's 15 June rate decision. Its own ratio of 1.51x compares with 1.78x for those, so it moved the price less than its circumstances would suggest.

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.
