Labor released its weekly report on new jobless claims on Thursday at 8:30 a.m. ET. Here were the main metrics from the report, compared to consensus data compiled by Bloomberg:</p><p><blockquote>美国劳工部于美国东部时间周四上午 8:30 发布了每周新申请失业救济人数报告。与彭博社编制的共识数据相比，以下是该报告的主要指标：</blockquote></p><p> <ul> <li><b>Initial jobless claims, week ended April 24:</b>553,000 vs. 540,000 expected and an upwardly revised 566,000 during the prior week</p><p><blockquote><ul><li><b>截至 4 月 24 日当周首次申请失业救济人数：</b>553,000 人，而预期为 540,000 人，前一周上调为 566,000 人</li></ul></blockquote></p><p></li> <li><b>Continuing claims, week ended April 17:</b>3.660 million vs. 3.590 million expected and a downwardly revised 3.651 million during the prior week</p><p><blockquote><li><b>截至 4 月 17 日当周的持续索赔：</b>366.0 万人，而前一周预期为 359.0 万人，并向下修正为 365.1 万人</li></blockquote></p><p></li> </ul> New jobless claims held below 600,000 for a third straight week, dipping to the lowest level since mid-March 2020 before the COVID-19 pandemic dealt a major blow to the U.S. economy. During the comparable week last year, new weekly jobless claims totaled nearly 3.5 million.</p><p><blockquote>新申请失业救济人数连续第三周低于 60 万人，跌至 2020 年 3 月中旬以来的最低水平，之后 COVID-19 大流行对美国经济造成重大打击。去年同期，每周新申请失业救济人数总计近 350 万。</blockquote></p><p> Though headline new claims have been on the decline, an elevated number of Americans have still been sidelined from the labor market. More than 16.5 million Americans were still receiving unemployment benefits across all programs as of mid-April, for a decrease of nearly 1 million from the previous week. That included more than 12 million Americans on the federal Pandemic Unemployment Assistance and Pandemic Emergency Unemployment Compensation program, which both expire in September.</p><p><blockquote>尽管新申请的头条新闻一直在下降，但仍有大量美国人被排除在劳动力市场之外。截至4月中旬，超过1650万美国人仍在领取所有项目的失业救济金，比前一周减少了近100万。其中包括超过 1200 万美国人享受联邦大流行失业援助和大流行紧急失业补偿计划，这两个计划都将于 9 月到期。</blockquote></p><p> But with the economic recovery now well under way, an emergent concern has become the paucity of qualified workers to fill open roles, according to many reports. The Federal Reserve'slatest Beige Book for April noted that\"hiring remained a widespread challenge, particularly for low-wage or hourly workers, restraining job growth in some cases.\"</p><p><blockquote>但根据许多报告，随着经济复苏的顺利进行，一个紧迫的问题是缺乏合格的工人来填补空缺职位。美联储最新发布的4月份褐皮书指出，“招聘仍然是一个普遍的挑战，特别是对于低工资或小时工来说，在某些情况下抑制了就业增长。”</blockquote></p><p> \"A growing number of employers report struggling to find qualified workers, particularly for entry level or lower wage positions,\" Bankrate senior economic analyst Mark Hamrick said in an email. \"The hard-hit leisure and hospitality sector, including bars and restaurants, appears to be ground zero for this challenge.\"</p><p><blockquote>Bankrate 高级经济分析师马克·哈姆里克 (Mark Hamrick) 在一封电子邮件中表示：“越来越多的雇主报告称，他们很难找到合格的工人，特别是入门级或低工资职位。”“包括酒吧和餐馆在内的遭受重创的休闲和酒店业似乎是应对这一挑战的起点。”</blockquote></p><p> Still, the overall data have pointed to a strongly positive trend in the job market's recovery trajectory. TheConference Board's April consumer confidence surveyreleased earlier this week showed a labor market differential – or difference between those saying jobs are \"plentiful\" versus those characterizing them as \"hard to get\" – that jumped significantly to 24.7 from 8.0 in March. And theoverall consumer confidence index rose to the highest level since February 2020, suggesting consumers were feeling better about economic prospects and might be more apt to go out and spend and stimulate even further hiring as reopenings took place.</p><p><blockquote>尽管如此，总体数据表明就业市场的复苏轨迹呈现出强烈的积极趋势。世界大型企业联合会本周早些时候发布的 4 月份消费者信心调查显示，劳动力市场差异——即那些认为工作“充足”的人与那些认为工作“难以获得”的人之间的差异——从 3 月份的 8.0 大幅跃升至 24.7。整体消费者信心指数升至2020年2月以来的最高水平，表明消费者对经济前景感觉更好，可能更倾向于外出消费，并随着重新开放而刺激进一步招聘。</blockquote></p><p> State-by-state unemployment</p><p><blockquote>各州失业率</blockquote></p><p> By state, Texas accounted for a significant portion of the drop in new jobless claims last week, with initial filings in the state dropping by nearly 20,000 on a seasonally unadjusted basis. Wisconsin also posted a notable decline of nearly 8,000 new claims, and Georgia saw a drop of nearly 7,000.</p><p><blockquote>按州划分，德克萨斯州占上周新申请失业救济人数下降的很大一部分，该州首次申请失业救济人数在未经季节性调整的基础上下降了近 20,000 人。威斯康星州的新申请人数也明显下降了近 8,000 人，佐治亚州的申请人数下降了近 7,000 人。</blockquote></p><p> On the other hand, Virginia posted the largest increase in unadjusted new claims at more than 29,000, bringing total new filings in the state to about 43,000 last week. Michigan, which has been contending with a spike in COVID-19 cases this month, saw new filings rise by 7,200 to about 30,000.</p><p><blockquote>另一方面，弗吉尼亚州未经调整的新申请增幅最大，超过 29,000 件，使该州上周的新申请总数达到约 43,000 件。密歇根州本月一直在应对 COVID-19 病例激增的问题，新申请数量增加了 7,200 份，达到约 30,000 份。</blockquote></p><p> And other states remained the leaders in terms of their insured unemployment rates, or ratio of individuals receiving unemployment insurance to the total population. Nevada again posted the greatest insured unemployment rate in the country at 5.9%, with this rate creeping higher for a second straight week. Connecticut's insured unemployment rate was the second highest at 5.3%, while Alaska's came in third at 4.9%. This compared to a national insured unemployment rate of 2.6%.</p><p><blockquote>其他州在投保失业率或领取失业保险的个人占总人口的比例方面仍然处于领先地位。内华达州再次公布了全国最高的保险失业率，为5.9%，这一比率连续第二周上升。康涅狄格州的保险失业率为5.3%，位居第二，阿拉斯加州的失业率为4.9%，位居第三。相比之下，全国保险失业率为2.6%。</blockquote></p><p></p>","source":"lsy1584348713084","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>Another 553,000 Americans filed new jobless claims last week, declining over the prior week<blockquote>上周又有 553,000 名美国人提交了新的失业救济申请，比前一周有所下降</blockquote></title>\n<style type=\"text/css\">\na,abbr,acronym,address,applet,article,aside,audio,b,big,blockquote,body,canvas,caption,center,cite,code,dd,del,details,dfn,div,dl,dt,\nem,embed,fieldset,figcaption,figure,footer,form,h1,h2,h3,h4,h5,h6,header,hgroup,html,i,iframe,img,ins,kbd,label,legend,li,mark,menu,nav,\nobject,ol,output,p,pre,q,ruby,s,samp,section,small,span,strike,strong,sub,summary,sup,table,tbody,td,tfoot,th,thead,time,tr,tt,u,ul,var,video{ font:inherit;margin:0;padding:0;vertical-align:baseline;border:0 }\nbody{ font-size:16px; line-height:1.5; color:#999; background:transparent; }\n.wrapper{ overflow:hidden;word-break:break-all;padding:10px; }\nh1,h2{ font-weight:normal; line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:.6em; }\nh3,h4,h5,h6{ line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:1em; }\nh1{ font-size:24px; }\nh2{ font-size:20px; }\nh3{ font-size:18px; }\nh4{ font-size:16px; }\nh5{ font-size:14px; }\nh6{ font-size:12px; }\np,ul,ol,blockquote,dl,table{ margin:1.2em 0; }\nul,ol{ margin-left:2em; }\nul{ list-style:disc; }\nol{ list-style:decimal; }\nli,li p{ margin:10px 0;}\nimg{ max-width:100%;display:block;margin:0 auto 1em; }\nblockquote{ color:#B5B2B1; border-left:3px solid #aaa; padding:1em; }\nstrong,b{font-weight:bold;}\nem,i{font-style:italic;}\ntable{ width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;border-spacing:1px;margin:1em 0;font-size:.9em; }\nth,td{ padding:5px;text-align:left;border:1px solid #aaa; }\nth{ font-weight:bold;background:#5d5d5d; }\n.symbol-link{font-weight:bold;}\n/* header{ border-bottom:1px solid #494756; } */\n.title{ margin:0 0 8px;line-height:1.3;color:#ddd; }\n.meta {color:#5e5c6d;font-size:13px;margin:0 0 .5em; }\na{text-decoration:none; color:#2a4b87;}\n.meta .head { display: inline-block; overflow: hidden}\n.head .h-thumb { width: 30px; height: 30px; margin: 0; padding: 0; border-radius: 50%; float: left;}\n.head .h-content { margin: 0; padding: 0 0 0 9px; float: left;}\n.head .h-name {font-size: 13px; color: #eee; margin: 0;}\n.head .h-time {font-size: 12.5px; color: #7E829C; margin: 0;}\n.small {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.9); -webkit-transform: scale(0.9); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.smaller {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.8); -webkit-transform: scale(0.8); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.bt-text {font-size: 12px;margin: 1.5em 0 0 0}\n.bt-text p {margin: 0}\n</style>\n</head>\n<body>\n<div class=\"wrapper\">\n<header>\n<h2 class=\"title\">\nAnother 553,000 Americans filed new jobless claims last week, declining over the prior week<blockquote>上周又有 553,000 名美国人提交了新的失业救济申请，比前一周有所下降</blockquote>\n</h2>\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n<p class=\"head\">\n<strong class=\"h-name small\">Yahoo</strong><span class=\"h-time small\">2021-04-29 20:42</span>\n</p>\n</h4>\n</header>\n<article>\n<p>New weekly jobless claims dropped from the prior week's upwardly revised level to a fresh pandemic-era low last week, with the accelerating pace of COVID-19 vaccinations in the U.S. helping support the labor market's recovery.</p><p><blockquote>上周，新的每周申请失业救济人数从前一周的上调水平降至大流行时代的新低，美国新冠肺炎疫苗接种步伐的加快有助于支持劳动力市场的复苏。</blockquote></p><p> The Department of Labor released its weekly report on new jobless claims on Thursday at 8:30 a.m. ET.
