Since there's not much else going on in this sentence, and we're already talking about particles, this seems to be a good opportunity to point out that よ is often misunderstood. It doesn't merely mark emphasis, like an exclamation point, but in fact it indicates information the speaker hopes the listener will find useful, as if the sentence began with, "You might like to know...". For example, you wouldn't say いい映画よ for "this is a good movie" while you're watching it with somebody; the person you're watching with already knows whether it's a good movie or not. In that case you want ね, not よ. If, however, the listener has no opinion of the movie (or has low expectations), and you're trying to convince him to see it, いい映画よ is what you want.
 
 
Hence, よ is often used to indicate a correction or, as in this sentence, new information.
