Initial claims of unemployment

Vertical lines each quarter, horizontal every 25,000 (per week), there's a seasonally adjusted weekly number and a smoothed version thereof, which held pretty well around 340,000 for four months in the middle of the year before touching about 350,000 at the beginning of the month and coming down again somewhat since then.

That's the last such report before the election. Tomorrow the 3Q advanced GDP number comes out, and that could mean something.
