| 08:50 EDT | | | Analysts saw an 11k U.S. initial claims drop to 346k
Analysts saw an 11k U.S. initial claims drop to 346k in the first week of June, following a 13k bounce to 357k (was 354k) in the final week of May, as claims have resumed their sideways trend above late-April's 327k five-year low, after a May rise from restrained April readings that reflected holiday-distortions. Claims are entering June below the 350k May average, versus a lower 341k April average but similar prior averages of 354k in March and 352k in February. The 344k May BLS survey week reading was lean relative to recent BLS readings of 355k in April, 341k in March, and 366k in February. Analysts still expect a 165k May nonfarm payroll gain that matches the April increase but undershoots prior averages of 206k for Q1 and 183k for 2012 overall. May payrolls face upside risk from gains in most consumer confidence measures in May, Friday's Chicago ISM strength, and sustained firmness in AutoNews vehicle assembly rates. Analysts face downside risk from the May rise in claims, declines in the May ISM, Empire State and Philly Fed headlines and components, a lean May ADP figure, and weakness in the ISM-NMI jobs component. |
