Japan jobless, consumer prices rise in November
AP - 1 hour 5 minutes ago
TOKYO - The Japanese government says unemployment rose to 3.9 percent in November from a month earlier. That is up 0.2 percent from October.
Consumer prices were also up 1 percent from a year earlier.
The Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare said that 2.56 million people were unemployed in Japan in November, an increase of 100,000 from a year earlier.
The jobless rate was in line with a Kyodo news market forecast of 4.0 percent.
The ministry says the rise in consumer prices from a year earlier was driven in part by increases in the cost of food, fuel and water.
The 1 percent rise was in line with the 1.1 percent rise predicted by a Kyodo news market survey.
