TSX futures fall ahead of US jobs data
Sept 6 (Reuters) -Futures tied to Canada's main stock index slipped on Friday as investors adopted a cautious stance ahead of the crucial employment data from the United States.
September futures on the S&P/TSX index SXFcv1 were down 0.6% at 6:12 a.m. ET (10:12 GMT).
The U.S. nonfarm payrolls data, due at 8:30 a.m. ET, could project the magnitude and pace of imminent interest rate cuts by the Federal Reserve, while any signs of further weakening in the labor market could risk a recession in the world's largest economy.
Money markets are conflicted about the extent of a U.S. rate cut at the next policy meeting on September 18. The odds for a 25-basis-point cut are 59%, while bets for a hefty 50-bps cut stand at 41%. 0#FEDWATCH

These data points come after the Bank of Canada's 25-basis-point rate-cut decision on Wednesday.
