Today's Data 2011-02-10

Initial jobless claims last week dropped by 36,000 to 383,000--the lowest reading since July 2008--according to the Labor Department. Economists had expected a decrease of only 4,000. Federal Reserve chairman Ben Bernanke, however, predicted before Congress yesterday that it will take at least four years for unemployment to fall below 6.0% from January's 9.0% reading.

Wholesale inventories increased by 1.0% to a seasonally adjusted $430.54 billion in De cember, the Commerce Department reported. Sales increased at a lesser rate by 0.4%. This may indicate an involuntary buildup of goods in warehouses, rather than anticipation of rising demand, economists said. Year-over-year inventories were up 10.5%, and sales jumped 11.6%.
