NEW YORK (Reuters) - A “nice bounce-back” in U.S. payrolls in April supports a forecast for the U.S. economy to expand at about a 3.0 percent pace in the second quarter and puts the Federal Reserve on track to raise interest rates in June, J.P. Morgan economist Michael Feroli said on Friday.

Earlier Friday, the U.S. Labor Department said nonfarm payrolls grew by 211,000 last month, up from a downwardly revised 79,000 increase in March.
