SOL Volatility Analysis for Non-Farm Payrolls, 6th May 2022

Data Analysis

The release

Released by the Bureau of Labor Statistics on 6 May 2022 at 8:30 AM EDT. The economy added 305K jobs for April 2022, according to Non-Farm Payrolls, after a gain of 471K in March 2022.

It arrived at the same moment as Non-Farm Private Payrolls and Unemployment Rate, so the reaction measured on this page belongs to all of them together.

How Solana moved

Solana was at $81.79 when the figure came out. Fifteen minutes later it was 0.15% higher, and an hour later 0.15% higher. Its high-to-low range in the hour after was 2.32% of its price, against 2.16% in the hour before.

Measured by Clometrix

Solana's volatility ratio was 2.06x, against 2.77x for a typical Non-Farm Payrolls release since 2021. Its volume ratio was 3.71x, against a typical 4.45x. 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, Non-Farm Payrolls releases in the two weeks before a Fed decision have moved Solana about as much as those at other times: a median volatility ratio of 2.72x across 21, against 2.81x across 49. This one came out 2 days after the Federal Reserve's 4 May rate decision. Its own ratio of 2.06x compares with 2.81x for those, so it moved the price less than its circumstances would suggest.

Its record

Across 70 Non-Farm Payrolls releases since 2021, Solana's median volatility ratio is 2.77x.

About Non-Farm Payrolls

Nonfarm payrolls is the measure of the number of workers in the U.S. excluding farm workers and workers in a handful of other job classifications. This is measured by the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS), which surveys private and government entities throughout the U.S. about their payrolls. The BLS reports the nonfarm payroll numbers to the public on a monthly basis through the closely followed “Employment Situation” report.
