Initial Jobless Claims Plunge Near 12-Month Lows (Thanks To Ohio’s Fraud Fix)<\/span><\/p>\n

After the prior week’s tumble to the lowest levels since 2022 – thanks to Ohio fixing its fraud situation – expectations were for a pickup in initial claims last week and the headline print did rise very modestly (from 215k to 220k).

Once again, we think it is important to remember that two distortions that likely boosted initial claims over the last few months – potentially fraudulent filings in Ohio and expanded eligibility for unemployment insurance in Minnesota<\/strong> – and that has now been erased.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

Continuing claims rose very modestly the prior week – but remains below the key 1.7MM level…<\/p>\n

As a reminder, the unemployment rate is now at its highest since Feb 2022…<\/p>\n
