NEW YORK, July 5 (Reuters) - Benchmark 10-year Treasury

yields slid Friday following closely-watched jobs data that

appeared to show the U.S. labor market weakening, keeping market

expectations in place for the Federal Reserve to cut interest

rates in September.

Non-farm payrolls grew by 206,000 jobs in June, slightly

higher than the 190,000 new jobs estimated by economists polled

by Reuters. Estimated job growth for May, meanwhile, was revised

down to 218,000 new jobs from 272,000, while April's job growth

was revised down to 108,000 new jobs from a previous 165,000.

The unemployment rate rose to 4.1%, slightly higher than the

estimated 4.0%.

The labor market has been a key focus for the Federal

Reserve in its debate over when to begin cutting interest rates

from nearly two-decade highs. The central bank has cited the

resiliency of the jobs market as a potential catalyst for a

possible resurgence in inflation.

"This was not a terrible report but with the large revisions

it shows there are cracks and weaknesses under the surface,"

said David Wagner, a portfolio manager at Aptus Capital

Advisors. "This keeps the (Fed's) September meeting a live

meeting for a rate cut."

Futures markets are now pricing in a roughly 72% chance

for a 25 basis point rate cut at the Fed's meeting that

concludes September 18th, up from a 57.9% chance seen a week

ago, according to CME's FedWatch Tool. Overall, markets are

pricing in a cumulative 50 basis points in interest rate cuts by

the end of the year.

The yield on the benchmark U.S. 10-year Treasury note

fell 3.4 basis points to 4.314%, leaving it down

approximately 15 basis points for the week and near its lowest

levels since late June.

The yield on the 30-year bond fell 1.5

basis points to 4.505%.

The two-year U.S. Treasury yield, which typically

moves in step with interest rate expectations,

fell 5.4 basis points to 4.639%.

A closely watched part of the U.S. Treasury yield curve

measuring the gap between yields on two- and 10-year Treasury

notes, seen as an indicator of economic

expectations, was at a negative 32.7 basis points.
