The week of major economic events and crypto earnings has begun. The most interesting? The employment report was postponed due to the government shutdown, so this week will be the release of the job data. They expect 70,000 new jobs to be created in January, higher than the 50,000 in December. The unemployment rate is expected to remain at 4.4% based on projections.

At the same time, the earnings of major crypto companies are also coming in. Coinbase will report quarterly results, including Robinhood, a trading platform with a crypto section as well. These companies are industry bellwethers, so how they perform is important.

There is also the Consensus Hong Kong conference next week, where many corporate announcements are expected to happen. The combination of employment data, earnings releases, and major industry events will be key in how the markets move. Curious to see how crypto reacts to these job numbers, especially if expectations turn out to be even higher.
