MNI: US DATA PREVIEW: US JOBLESS CLAIMS SEEN AT 1.29M
-------------------------------------------------
U.S. weekly jobless claims filed through June 13 are expected to reach 1.29
million Thursday (range 900k to 1.5m), falling short of last week's 1.54
million. That would still take the total number of initial unemployment claims
filed since the Covid-19 pandemic was declared in mid-March to more than 45
million -- nearly 30% of the pre-crisis labor force.
-Continuing claims through June 6 should fall slightly to 19.85 million (range
17.5m to 20.6m) after dropping to 20.9 million last week.
