The major averages closed broadly lower ahead of the long weekend as traders reacted to the stronger-than-expected August jobs report. Nonfarm payrolls rose 162,000, well above the roughly 55,000 consensus estimate and a sharp rebound from July. The unemployment rate held at 4.1%, while labor-force participation edged up to 61.6%, suggesting the labor market remains more resilient than the weak July report had indicated.
