WASHINGTON (MarketWatch) - U.S. applications for unemployment compensation increased by 1,000 to a seasonally adjusted 427,000 in the week ended June 4, according to the Labor Department. Economists surveyed by MarketWatch had expected new requests to decline to 419,000. Initial claims from two weeks ago were revised up to 426,000 from an originally reported 422,000. The average of new claims over the past four weeks, meanwhile, dipped 2,750 to 424,000. The monthly average is considered a more accurate measure of employment trends because it smoothes out week-to-week volatility in the data. The number of people who continued to receive unemployment checks dropped 71,000 to a seasonally adjusted 3.68 million in the week ended May 28. Continuing claims are reported with a one-week lag. The total number of people receiving some kind of state or federal benefit, which is reported with a two-week lag, declined by 89,233 to 7.60 million in week of May 21.
