Here come initial jobless claims ...

Akin OyedeleMar 3, 2016, 18:32 IST

The latest weekly data on initial jobless claims are set for release at 8:30 a.m. ET.

Economists estimate that initial jobless claims fell by 2,000 to 270,000 last week, according to Bloomberg. Unless there's a big upside surprise, this would mark one year since the week that claims rose above 300,000 in 2015.

It's the last piece of labor-market data ahead of the February jobs report on Friday. Economists forecast that nonfarm payrolls grew 195,000.

We'll have the latest once the data cross, so refresh this page for updates.
