Jobless Claims ALLX (Nov 1)
Karim writes:
- Initial claims fall 4k to 481k, but prior week revised up 6k to 485k (4wk avg 477k)
Real story is latest jump in continuing claims, from 3721k to 3843k (4wk avg 3754k) - Higher continuing claims tied to longer duration of unemployment and in turn lower wage pressures
- Now look for payrolls to exceed -300k tomorrow; would be consistent with across the board weaker-than-expected data for past month.
