Tem que ser abraço, que eu ontem "desanquei" o Infoo por ele andar desaparecido. Ainda por cima o moço trocou o nome ao furacão e pôs os cubanos (que já têm chatices que cheguem) a levar com o dito furacão e a "ervar" (tudo na passa).

Hoje foi mesmo um abração, que pessoas como o Infoo, o Ptmasters, o Wolfman, tu, fazem um "trabalho" que nos é muito util. A gente tem que agradeçer, nem que seja com beijocas, ñé?

Abraçocas

WASHINGTON (MarketWatch) -- The number of people collecting state unemployment benefits over the past four weeks rose to the highest level since March, another sign that hiring in the U.S. economy has softened.

The Labor Department said Thursday that seasonally adjusted first-time claims for unemployment benefits rose by 14,000 to reach 315,000 in the week ended July 29. The four-week average of new claims, which smoothes out one-time factors such as weather or holidays, was nearly flat at 313,750.

The number of workers collecting jobless benefits rose by 11,000 to stand at 2.48 million in the week ended July 22. The four-week average of continuing jobless claims rose by 8,000 to 2.47 million, the most since March.

The insured unemployment rate, measuring the percentage of those eligible for benefits who are collecting them, remained at 1.9%.
Over the past year, initial claims are essentially unchanged, while continuing claims are down about 6%. Continuing claims dipped to about 2.4 million in late May, but they've been slowly rising since.

Initial claims represent job destruction, while the level of continuing claims indicates how hard or easy it is for displaced workers to find new jobs.

The figures come one day before the Labor Department reports on nonfarm payroll growth for July. Economists expect a gain of 143,000 or so, on the heels of tepid growth averaging about 110,000 over the past three months.

The Federal Reserve's locked in a struggle to restrain inflation without crushing the economy. A modest slowdown in economic activity, including employment, is expected and would be welcomed by the Fed because a slower economy would reduce inflationary pressures over time.

The Federal Open Market Committee, charged with overseeing U.S. monetary policy, is expected to stand pat on its overnight lending-rate target at its Aug. 8 meeting, which would bring to an end a string of 17 straight rate hikes.

The decision whether to raise rates again or to pause will be a close one, Fed officials have said. Friday's jobs report will weigh heavily in the decision.
