This indicator has been incredibly volatile lately, rising to as high as 230k in early June, before plunging south of 190k recently. In my view, because the last two prints have come in under 210k and there\u2019s a strong expectation of that to occur again, the \u201cNo\u201d at $0.53 is undervalued at that threshold.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1100\" height=\"411\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.interactivebrokers.com\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2026\/07\/image-136-1100x411.png\" alt=\"Interactive Brokers Prediction Market contract for US initial unemployment claims\" class=\"wp-image-251969 lazyload\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/ibkrcampus.com\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2026\/07\/image-136-1100x411.png 1100w, https:\/\/ibkrcampus.com\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2026\/07\/image-136-700x262.png 700w, https:\/\/ibkrcampus.com\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2026\/07\/image-136-300x112.png 300w, https:\/\/ibkrcampus.com\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2026\/07\/image-136-768x287.png 768w, https:\/\/ibkrcampus.com\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2026\/07\/image-136-1536x574.png 1536w, https:\/\/ibkrcampus.com\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2026\/07\/image-136.png 2046w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 1100px) 100vw, 1100px\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 1100px; aspect-ratio: 1100\/411;\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"h-wei-has-also-been-all-over-the-place\" class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>WEI Has Also Been All Over the Place<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Dallas Fed\u2019s Weekly Economic Index (WEI) has been all over the place lately, covering a wide range spanning from 2.55% to 3.22% in the past eight weeks while the last four have delivered results of 2.93%, 2.6%, 3.12% and 2.55%.
