Claimant Count Change (GBP) – 18/02

 

What is it? It checks the Change in the number of people claiming unemployment-related benefits during the previous month.

Although it's generally viewed as a lagging indicator, the number of unemployed people is an important signal of overall economic health because consumer spending is highly correlated with labor-market conditions. Unemployment is also a major consideration for those steering the country's monetary policy.

When? February 18th at 4:30am Eastern Time

If the actual number is lower than the forecast, you can expect the GBP to rise.
