| Jobless Claims |
Earlier today, the Labor Department released its weekly report on New Jobless Insurance Claims for the week that ended on June 3, 2023:
====================
Predicted: 250,000
- Actual: 261,000
The yellow-highlighted figure represents the number of first-time claims for unemployment benefits for the entire United States. The "predicted" figure is what economists were expecting, while the "actual" is the true or real figure.
- Previous Week (revised): 233,000
- 4-Week Moving Average: 237,250
====================
From Today's Report
"...[261,000] is the highest level for initial claims since October 30, 2021 when it was 264,000..."
