The U.S. dollar recovered against its major counterparts in the New York session on Friday, as recession fears eased after jobs data and traders pondered the size of rate cut expected later this month.
Data from the Labor Department showed that employment in the U.S. rose less than expected in the month of August.
Non-farm payroll employment climbed by 142,000 jobs in August compared to economist estimates for an increase of 160,000 jobs.
The unemployment rate edged down to 4.2 percent in August from 4.3 percent in July.
While the data is seen as increasing the chances of a 50 basis point interest rate cut by the Federal Reserve later this month, traders seem worried the central bank may have waited too long to prevent the economy from slipping into a recession.
According to CME Group's FedWatch Tool, there is a 45 percent chance of a half point rate cut and a 55 percent chance of a quarter point rate cut.
The greenback recovered to 1.3148 against the pound, 0.8475 against the franc and 143.89 against the yen, from an early 9-day low of 1.3239, more than 7-month low of 0.8374 and more than a 4-week low of 141.97, respectively.
