The result exceeded the analysts' average expectations of a 3.9% unemployment rate and 190,000 new jobs.

The average hourly wage was expected to be 0.2% per month and 2.6% on an annual basis.
The rise in pay is perfectly logical, given the low unemployment rate and the accelerated pace of job growth, according to market observers.
