Michael Reinking, Senior Market Strategist for the NYSE, recaps a choppy week driven by tariff uncertainty, tech earnings misses, and focus on the upcoming jobs report.

Labor data showed slower hiring and AI-linked layoffs, though productivity gains offered a bright spot. Reinking flags the jobs report, expected Fed rate cuts, and inflation data as key drivers ahead.
