AI interpretation: The number of initial jobless claims is at a historically low level, which directly proves the extremely tight supply and demand in the labor market.

The market's concerns about economic recession are completely offset by employment resilience. This data reinforces the necessity of monetary policy tightening and limits the market's expected space for loose policies.
