Energy stocks rise late to buoy Wall Street
NEW YORK (Reuters) - A late rebound in energy shares helped U.S. stocks end with slight gains on Thursday, a day ahead of the highly anticipated U.S. monthly jobs report.
The Dow Jones Industrial Average rose 2.46 points, or 0.01 percent, to 20,858.19, the S&P 500 gained 1.89 points, or 0.08 percent, to 2,364.87 and the Nasdaq Composite added 1.26 points, or 0.02 percent, to 5,838.81.
Thursday marked the eighth anniversary of the stock market bottom in the 2007-2009 recession. The ongoing bull market is the second-longest ever.
