Initial claims for state unemployment benefits in the US rose by 9,000 to a seasonally adjusted 200,000 in the week ended 7 November 2026, indicating a modest increase in applications for unemployment assistance. The figure was higher than economists’ expectations of 195,000 and followed a revised reading of 191,000 in the previous week. The four-week moving average, which smooths weekly fluctuations, remained unchanged at 195,250. Despite the increase, jobless claims have remained at or below 200,000 for nine consecutive weeks and have not exceeded 230,000 in any week this year. The trend suggests that employers are continuing to retain workers despite economic uncertainty and shifting business conditions.
