US 30 forecast: key trading points
- Recent data: weekly US initial jobless claims came in at 221 thousand
- Market impact: this is a positive signal for US equities, particularly for the US 30 index, as a strong labour market supports consumer demand and stable economic activity
US 30 fundamental analysis
US initial jobless claims came in at 221 thousand, below the forecast of 233 thousand and the previous figure of 228 thousand. The indicator reflects the number of new unemployment benefit claims filed during the week and serves as a gauge of the current situation in the labour market. The decline in claims signals continued resilience and even strengthening of the labour market.
Overall, the data suggests a stable economic environment and fuels investor optimism, driving the US 30 index higher. However, investors also take into account other macroeconomic data and geopolitical risks, so market movements may be volatile.
