New claims for US unemployment insurance benefits plunged to the lowest level in nearly 15 years last week, the Labor Department reported January 29, 2015. Initial jobless claims, a sign of the pace of layoffs, dropped to a seasonally adjusted 265,000 in the week ending January 24, a hefty decline of 43,000 from the prior week's slightly upwardly revised level of 308,000. It was the lowest level for initial claims since mid-April 2000. The decline in claims was much steeper than expected, with analysts projecting a reading of 301,000.The Labor Department said there was no particular factor influencing the current week's claims data.
