US Jobless Claims Rise Unexpectedly

 

First-time jobless claims rose unexpectedly in the United States last week, giving light to the instability of the labour market. The Labour Department announced today that first-time claims jumped last week by 43,000.

Overall, 364,000 people made applied for jobless insurance for the first time last week. This is the sharpest increase over-the-week since early 2002. Analysts were surprised by the jump, as they had predicted a rise up to 331,000 claims.

Ever going to be good news as far as the job market? Oh yea, not until we have a president who thinks out-sourcing is bad.

  stable...?  
 
Even though it sucks-- the NUMBERS (on paper) seem to have stabilized; they had 'dropped unexpectedly' last week... but if you study the trend you'll see that it's an average pattern, just in higher numbers compared to the Clinton admin. This is probably it for the Bush administration's ability to prevent further job loss in the US.

This is a whole new wave of people claiming unemployment, on top of all the people who FINALL ran out after 9/11 and Bush' benefit-extensions ran out. They aren't counted by the employment agencies any longer, which is a shame because this is the biggest scam the government likes to pull on the public.

He'll probably issue more money to everyone again... because this guy doesn't understand economics (nor much else for that matter).

look at the 'unemployment' graphs for Q3 and Q4 and you'll see less fluctuation in the charts.

(But, really, you are right because it's not stable.... it's just looks that way on paper!)
