The Dow Jones Industrial Average fell about 207 points, or 0.5%, ending near 43,750, according to preliminary data from FactSet.

Initial jobless claims fell by 4,000 to 217,000 in the week ending Nov. 9, the lowest level since May. This was better than the expected 1,000 decline to 220,000. Before seasonal adjustments, the number of new claims jumped by 16,735 to 229,478. The number of people already collecting unemployment benefits fell by 11,000 to 1.87 million.
Despite the mixed data, the overall picture suggests companies are not rushing to hire at the same pace as earlier in the year and are not aggressively laying off workers. Richmond Fed President Tom Barkin noted that employers are wary of being understaffed again after the pandemic. Economists believe the Federal Reserve's current policy approach of gradual tightening is appropriate given the strength in the labor market.
