Odaily News Financial blog Zero Hedge: Although non-farm payrolls dominated the labor market news, the rise in the number of continuing unemployment claims in the United States is still worth noting. The number of initial unemployment claims fell from 237,000 to 233,000 last week, falling from a 9-month high. The number of continuing unemployment claims was 1.964 million, the highest level since November 2021. The so-called Deep Tristate (Washington, DC, Virginia, Maryland) region dominated the increase in continuing applications, reaching the highest level since December 2021. (Jinshi)
