At 14:30 (GMT+2), the US will present data on the number of initial unemployment claims. The indicator determines the number of people who filed applications for the first time during the past week. Statistics are collected by the national Department of Labor and published in a weekly report. The number of claims is used to measure the state of the employment sector, as an increase in the value means that fewer people are being hired. It may change from 242.0K to 235.0K.
