The median forecast in a Bloomberg survey of economists called for 212,000.Continuing claims, a proxy for the number of people receiving unemployment benefits, rose to 1.9 million in the week ending Jan. 20.The US labor market has defied economists forecasts over the last year despite elevated interest rates, but there are signs of cooling. Fewer people are quitting their jobs than at the peak of the pandemic recovery and recent high-profile job-cuts announcements from companies including United States Parcel Service Inc. may be early signs that unemployment will pick up in coming months.Weekly claims tend to be volatile. The four-week moving average, which helps smooth short-term fluctuations, increased to 207,750, marking the biggest increase since November.The unadjusted data on initial claims, which doesn’t take into account seasonal influences, rose by 11,000 to about 261,000. California, New York and Oregon saw the largest gains.US-based employers announced plans to cut over 82,300 cuts in last month, more than double the December figure, according to a report earlier Thursday from Challenger, Gray & Christmas. Meanwhile, hiring plans were the weakest on record for a January.The low level of jobless claims data may not be a reliable indicator of what is happening in the labor market due to pandemic-related factors, according to Bloomberg Economics’ Anna Wong and Eliza Winger.There’s a historically low share of unemployed Americans applying for benefits due to a lack of eligibility and the fact that the weekly payouts have not kept up with the pace of inflation, which may cause more people to seek part-time jobs rather than apply for benefits, Wong and Winger wrote in a recent note.After Federal Reserve officials held interest rates steady on Wednesday, Chair Jerome Powell called the labor market “strong” in a press conference, adding “it’s getting back into balance, and that’s what we want to see.”The release of the government’s monthly jobs report Friday will provide further insights on the labor market. Economists forecast US employers added 185,000 jobs in January.","kind":null,"is_publish_news":true,"is_publish_highlight":true,"is_publish_live":false,"is_publish_wemedia":null,"editions":null,"column":"","sentiment":"0","news_tag":"","news_rank":0,"symbols":[],"gpt_button":1},"commentList":[{"id":269461004247176,"gmtCreate":1706803327939,"gmtModify":1706803332742,"author":{"id":"3575426937784230","authorId":"3575426937784230","name":"MaxGain","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/1e7ec5528a5a65cfeab0826428adcb08","vip":1,"crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"authorIdStr":"3575426937784230","idStr":"3575426937784230"},"htmlText":"Need the whole US economy to crash with a GREAT DEPRESSION and that it should last at least 10 years.&nbsp;","listText":"Need the whole US economy to crash with a GREAT DEPRESSION and that it should last at least 10 years.&nbsp;","text":"Need the whole US economy to crash with a GREAT DEPRESSION and that it should last at least 10 years.","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/269461004247176","repostId":1195845954,"repostType":2,"isVote":1,"likeStatus":false,"favoriteStatus":false,"reportStatus":false,"tweetType":1,"langContent":"EN"},{"id":269427269185632,"gmtCreate":1706794983084,"gmtModify":1706799292185,"author":{"id":"4152407775893162","authorId":"4152407775893162","name":"Tyler27","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/badfb4eb8dfba266c38568f28d2234e0","vip":1,"hat":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/2b6219675842600ebb42baa43c645832","crmLevel":9,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"authorIdStr":"4152407775893162","idStr":"4152407775893162"},"htmlText":"Interest rate cuttttt","listText":"Interest rate cuttttt","text":"Interest rate cuttttt","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/269427269185632","repostId":1195845954,"repostType":2,"isVote":1,"likeStatus":false,"favoriteStatus":false,"reportStatus":false,"tweetType":1,"langContent":"EN"},{"id":269425915498592,"gmtCreate":1706794652594,"gmtModify":1706794656698,"author":{"id":"3582029733148232","authorId":"3582029733148232","name":"LiverpoolRed","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/a3f6d64be1c39dfd245a3348d690b450","vip":1,"hat":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b073a07f77dbe6b3bec6b12311fde6bd","crmLevel":7,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"authorIdStr":"3582029733148232","idStr":"3582029733148232"},"htmlText":"noted","listText":"noted","text":"noted","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/269425915498592","repostId":1195845954,"repostType":2,"isVote":1,"likeStatus":false,"favoriteStatus":false,"reportStatus":false,"tweetType":1,"langContent":"EN"}],"isCommentEnd":false,"newsSizeData":{"likeSize":7,"commentSize":3,"repostSize":3,"favoriteSize":0,"likeStatus":false,"favoriteStatus":false},"APP":{"userAgent":"Mozilla/5.0 AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko; compatible; ClaudeBot/1.0; +claudebot@anthropic.com)","isDev":false,"isTTM":true,"deviceId":"web-server-community-laohu8-v3","version":"4.29.1","shortVersion":"4.29.1","platform":"web","vendor":"web","appName":"ttm","isIOS":false,"isAndroid":false,"isTiger":false,"isTHS":false,"isWeiXin":false,"isWeiXinMini":false,"isWeiBo":false,"isQQ":false,"isBaiduSwan":false,"isBaiduBox":false,"isDingTalk":false,"isToutiao":false,"isOnePlus":false,"isHuaWei":false,"isXiaomi":false,"isXiaomiWebView":false,"isOppo":false,"isVivo":false,"isSamsung":false,"isMobile":false},"href":"/m/news/1195845954"}
