US500 waits for another spike in jobless claims

12:39 PM 16 April 2020

US jobless claims data will be released at 1:30 pm BST.  The reading is expected to show another massive increase of 5.5 million, putting combined 4-week claims above 22 million! Surprisingly, US500 gained after each of the past 3 releases (see the table below). Will the situation be similar this time? Note that yesterday's worse-than-expected US data caused stocks to drop.
