MarketWatch reports:
The number of people who applied for unemployment benefits last week rose to the highest level in more than a month, the government reported Thursday, in another sign the U.S. labor market is not improving as fast as it was earlier in the year.
Jobless claims rose by 10,000 to a seasonally adjusted 383,000 in the week ended May 26, the U.S. Labor Department said Thursday. Claims from two weeks ago were revised up to 373,000 from an original reading of 370,000, based on more complete data collected at the state level.
