FYI: Jobless claims came in a bit higher than expected this week rising from 234K up to 244K compared to expectations for an increase to 240K. Even with the increase though, claims came in at or below 250K for the eighth straight week and below 300K for the 125th straight week. As shown in the chart below, the trend for claims remains lower with a series of lower highs
