Michigan new claims fell slightly to 30,816 for the week ending May 1 from 31,004 the prior week, but remain near pandemic-era highs. U S overall claims dropped to 498,000, with regular benefits at a pandemic low as workers move between programs and wages are reassessed. Economists note ongoing elevated levels but see gradual improvement as vaccines rise and capacity normalizes.
