Jobless Claims Higher Than Expected But Still Sub 250K
FYI: Jobless claims came in higher than expected this week, rising to 244K from 242K. Make no mistake, though, with claims coming in below 250K for the fourth straight week and below 300K for the 121st straight week, claims are extraordinarily low by historical standards. Also, as shown in the inset chart, claims continue to trend lower. Regards, Ted https://www.bespokepremium.com/think-big-blog/jobless-claims-higher-than-expected-but-still-sub-250k/
