SaltWire's Atlantic regional weather forecast for November 9, 2023 | SaltWire - The number of Americans filing new claims for unemployment benefits fell last week as the labor market continued to show few signs of a significant slowdown.

Data last week showed the job market is cooling, with the pace of hiring slowing and unemployment ticking higher, although joblessness - at 3.9% in October - remains historically low. A separate report showed that there were 1.5 job openings for every unemployed person in September, down from around 2-to-1 when the job market was the most tight last year.
