Jobless claims total 215,000, fewer than expected; productivity rises 6.6%

Initial claims for unemployment insurance totaled 215,000, below the 225,000 estimate.

That was the lowest level since Jan. 1 and comes a day ahead of the closely watched nonfarm payrolls report for February.

A separate report showed Q4 productivity up 6.6%, slightly less than expected, but with a rise in unit labor costs that was well ahead of estimates.
