Today on the Brief: Powell says private companies shouldn’t be involved in Central Bank Digital Currencies According to former NSA head John Bolton, Trump told Mnuchin to go after Bitcoin Interest around Compound driving speculation around a DeFi-driven bull run Our main topic: This week’s U.S. jobless report brought bad news.

Economists predicted these claims would fall 600,000+ to 19.9 million. Instead, they fell a tenth of that - 62,000 - to leave total continuing claims at 20.5 million. In this episode, NLW breaks down what we can learn from these numbers when they’re combined with the previously released May jobs report. Mixed signals confusing analysis Economic pain not (only) a short-term shock Demand destruction an open question White-collar jobs may be next Short-term pain has long-term effects (see: 106 million loans in relief) There is a relationship between unemployment and the markets See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
