May nonfarm payroll numbers Friday at 8:30 a.m. ET will show a gain of just 125,000 , down from 177,000 in April .

Anything beyond that could set off a fresh round of fears about the labor market and broader economy.

From there, investors will try to figure out whether the latest numbers move the needle on Fed policy.

A small dip from the recent trend likely wouldn't be viewed as worrisome.
