US Initial Jobless Claims Fall to Lowest Level in Over Three Years, Easing Concerns of Deteriorating Job Market
BlockBeats News, December 4th. Last week, the number of initial jobless claims in the United States dropped to the lowest level in over three years, with no signs of deterioration in the labor market conditions. The U.S. Labor Department said on Thursday that in the week ending November 29th, seasonally adjusted state unemployment insurance initial claims fell by 27,000 to 191,000, reaching the lowest level since September 2022, below the market expectation of 220,000. This data includes the Thanksgiving holiday last Thursday, during which the application data typically fluctuates significantly.
The current level of claims aligns with the historical low levels of layoffs, potentially alleviating concerns about a sharp deterioration in the labor market—earlier on Wednesday, the ADP employment report showed the largest drop in private sector employment in over two and a half years in November. The highly anticipated November nonfarm payroll report by the Bureau of Labor Statistics, originally scheduled for release on Friday, was delayed due to a record-breaking 43-day government shutdown and is now set to be published on December 16th. Economists believe that the labor market is still in a "no layoff, no hiring" status. (Golden Finance)
