The number of Americans presenting new task programs may continue to overturn, increase, and then decrease slightly, but it will most likely remain at the top, as economic uncertainty persists amid the coronavirus outbreak. About 1.25 million Americans first implemented unemployment insurance last week, economists estimate.
That would be a slight increase from last week and occurs when unemployed Americans do well without the weekly federal perks of more than $600 that started the pandemic and ended in July.
Unemployment fell to 10.2% in July since June 11.1%. But the nascent recovery has been uneven, with re-treats expanding in some industries and stagnating in others.
