claims/challenger

Posted on August 20, 2010 @ 11:35 am (Friday) by WARREN MOSLER

SMR pushing the erroneous measurement of claims story; attached is a chart showing gap between challenger layoffs and initial claims at a 12yr wide.

The claims data does look peculiar.

Karim and I agree that even if claims level off in the 475-500,000 range it’s probably not a double dip scenario.
