The initial claims graph is up compared to February (they are seasonally adjusted), but has plateaued and come down a bit since mid-April.

The insured unemployment graph (continuing claims) is up considerably from last October but looks like its plateauing too, since early April.

Edited to add: Below the seasonally adjusted graphs are seasonally unadjusted graphs to figure out.
