Here were the main metrics from the report, compared to consensus data compiled by Bloomberg:</p>\n<ul>\n <li><p><b>Initial jobless claims, week ended April 24:</b>553,000 vs. 540,000 expected and an upwardly revised 566,000 during the prior week</p></li>\n <li><p><b>Continuing claims, week ended April 17:</b>3.660 million vs. 3.590 million expected and a downwardly revised 3.651 million during the prior week</p></li>\n</ul>\n<p>New jobless claims held below 600,000 for a third straight week, dipping to the lowest level since mid-March 2020 before the COVID-19 pandemic dealt a major blow to the U.S. economy. During the comparable week last year, new weekly jobless claims totaled nearly 3.5 million.</p>\n<p>Though headline new claims have been on the decline, an elevated number of Americans have still been sidelined from the labor market. More than 16.5 million Americans were still receiving unemployment benefits across all programs as of mid-April, for a decrease of nearly 1 million from the previous week. That included more than 12 million Americans on the federal Pandemic Unemployment Assistance and Pandemic Emergency Unemployment Compensation program, which both expire in September.</p>\n<p>But with the economic recovery now well under way, an emergent concern has become the paucity of qualified workers to fill open roles, according to many reports. The Federal Reserve'slatest Beige Book for April noted that\"hiring remained a widespread challenge, particularly for low-wage or hourly workers, restraining job growth in some cases.\"</p>\n<p>\"A growing number of employers report struggling to find qualified workers, particularly for entry level or lower wage positions,\" Bankrate senior economic analyst Mark Hamrick said in an email. \"The hard-hit leisure and hospitality sector, including bars and restaurants, appears to be ground zero for this challenge.\"</p>\n<p>Still, the overall data have pointed to a strongly positive trend in the job market's recovery trajectory. TheConference Board's April consumer confidence surveyreleased earlier this week showed a labor market differential – or difference between those saying jobs are \"plentiful\" versus those characterizing them as \"hard to get\" – that jumped significantly to 24.7 from 8.0 in March. And theoverall consumer confidence index rose to the highest level since February 2020, suggesting consumers were feeling better about economic prospects and might be more apt to go out and spend and stimulate even further hiring as reopenings took place.</p>\n<p>State-by-state unemployment</p>\n<p>By state, Texas accounted for a significant portion of the drop in new jobless claims last week, with initial filings in the state dropping by nearly 20,000 on a seasonally unadjusted basis. Wisconsin also posted a notable decline of nearly 8,000 new claims, and Georgia saw a drop of nearly 7,000.</p>\n<p>On the other hand, Virginia posted the largest increase in unadjusted new claims at more than 29,000, bringing total new filings in the state to about 43,000 last week. Michigan, which has been contending with a spike in COVID-19 cases this month, saw new filings rise by 7,200 to about 30,000.</p>\n<p>And other states remained the leaders in terms of their insured unemployment rates, or ratio of individuals receiving unemployment insurance to the total population. Nevada again posted the greatest insured unemployment rate in the country at 5.9%, with this rate creeping higher for a second straight week. Connecticut's insured unemployment rate was the second highest at 5.3%, while Alaska's came in third at 4.9%.

Here were the main metrics from the report, compared to consensus data compiled by Bloomberg:\n\nInitial jobless claims, week ended April 24:553,000 vs. 540,000 expected and an upwardly revised 566,000 during the prior week\nContinuing claims, week ended April 17:3.660 million vs. 3.590 million expected and a downwardly revised 3.651 million during the prior week\n\nNew jobless claims held below 600,000 for a third straight week, dipping to the lowest level since mid-March 2020 before the COVID-19 pandemic dealt a major blow to the U.S. economy. During the comparable week last year, new weekly jobless claims totaled nearly 3.5 million.\nThough headline new claims have been on the decline, an elevated number of Americans have still been sidelined from the labor market. More than 16.5 million Americans were still receiving unemployment benefits across all programs as of mid-April, for a decrease of nearly 1 million from the previous week. That included more than 12 million Americans on the federal Pandemic Unemployment Assistance and Pandemic Emergency Unemployment Compensation program, which both expire in September.\nBut with the economic recovery now well under way, an emergent concern has become the paucity of qualified workers to fill open roles, according to many reports. The Federal Reserve'slatest Beige Book for April noted that\"hiring remained a widespread challenge, particularly for low-wage or hourly workers, restraining job growth in some cases.\"\n\"A growing number of employers report struggling to find qualified workers, particularly for entry level or lower wage positions,\" Bankrate senior economic analyst Mark Hamrick said in an email. \"The hard-hit leisure and hospitality sector, including bars and restaurants, appears to be ground zero for this challenge.\"\nStill, the overall data have pointed to a strongly positive trend in the job market's recovery trajectory. TheConference Board's April consumer confidence surveyreleased earlier this week showed a labor market differential – or difference between those saying jobs are \"plentiful\" versus those characterizing them as \"hard to get\" – that jumped significantly to 24.7 from 8.0 in March. And theoverall consumer confidence index rose to the highest level since February 2020, suggesting consumers were feeling better about economic prospects and might be more apt to go out and spend and stimulate even further hiring as reopenings took place.\nState-by-state unemployment\nBy state, Texas accounted for a significant portion of the drop in new jobless claims last week, with initial filings in the state dropping by nearly 20,000 on a seasonally unadjusted basis. Wisconsin also posted a notable decline of nearly 8,000 new claims, and Georgia saw a drop of nearly 7,000.\nOn the other hand, Virginia posted the largest increase in unadjusted new claims at more than 29,000, bringing total new filings in the state to about 43,000 last week. Michigan, which has been contending with a spike in COVID-19 cases this month, saw new filings rise by 7,200 to about 30,000.\nAnd other states remained the leaders in terms of their insured unemployment rates, or ratio of individuals receiving unemployment insurance to the total population. Nevada again posted the greatest insured unemployment rate in the country at 5.9%, with this rate creeping higher for a second straight week. Connecticut's insured unemployment rate was the second highest at 5.3%, while Alaska's came in third at 4.9%. This compared to a national insured unemployment rate of 2.6%.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":170,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0}],"lives":[]}
