what does "big beat" means?
Barring a big beat or miss on payrolls, the market focus should be on wage growth, which is expected to have heated up in February. Wage inflation has been very slow to catch up with the tight U.S. stock market, giving the Federal Reserve a lot more leeway to be patient at present.

Hope that helps.
