Jobless claims improve
The number of jobless claims is a measure of the job market. According to the Labor Department, 392,000 people claimed jobless benefits during the week of May 7, but during the following week the number decreased to 365,000 claims. The numbers reflect improvement, but it is too soon to determine how steady the job market is and whether or not it is returning to a downward trend. About 160,000 jobs were added in April, and economists believe the unemployment rate is not expected to fall beyond its current 8.2 percent.
