At 14:30 (GMT+2), weekly data on the number of initial jobless claims in the US will be released in the US. The indicator measures the number of people who filed for unemployment benefits for the first time during the past week. This data is collected by the Department of Labor and published in a weekly report. The number of applications for benefits is used to measure the state of the labor market since an increase means that fewer people are being hired. It is expected that the figure will decrease from 203K to 200K.
