Jobless Claims Back Above 300K

FYI: After two straight weeks with a two-handle, jobless claims rose back above 300K this week. While economists were expecting first time claims to come in at 287K, the actual reading was 17K higher at 304K. Even with the higher than expected reading, though, we would stress the fact that claims are still exceptionally low by historical standards.

    If you WANT work there is plenty of it in the U.S...ask Companies if they can find "workers" to fill their Open positions .....
