      US jobless claims fall to lowest since mid-July

The four-week average of claims, which smooths out week-to-week volatility, dropped by 2,500 to 200,000. Claims for jobless benefits are a proxy for lay-offs, and economists watch them...

Míra nezaměstnanosti se pak zvýšila o desetinu procentního bodu na 4,2 procenta, uvedlo v pátek americké ministerstvo práce. Podle analytiků ale výraznější zpomalení tvorby pracovních míst pravděpodobně neznamená zásadní změnu na trhu práce.
