NEW YORK (CNN/Money) - Jobless claims dropped last week, the government said Thursday, to a level lower than Wall Street analysts expected.
The Labor Department report said 386,000 filed for benefits in the week ended Aug. 16, compared with an upwardly revised reading of 403,000 in the prior week. Economists, on average, expected 395,000 new claims, according to a Reuters poll.
