“New jobless claims doubled to a 6.648 million for the week ended March 28 as an increasing number of businesses shut down operations amid the coronavirus and put employees out of work. The record level of new jobless claims underscored the unprecedented impact the outbreak has had on the domestic economy, jolting the labor market with swift devastation rather than building to a peak as in prior downturns.”
