At 15:30 (GMT+2), the US will present data on the number of initial unemployment claims. The indicator measures the number of people who applied for the first time during the past week. Statistics are collected by the national Ministry of Labor and published in a weekly report. The number of benefit claims is used to measure the health of the employment sector, as an increase in the number means that fewer people are hired. A correction from 202.0K to 207.0K is expected.
