NEW YORK (AP) -- Stocks surged Thursday after positive reports on the U.S. jobs market and Chinese exports provided some relief to two issues that have had investors on edge for more than a month.
The Dow Jones industrial average is up nearly 160 points in early trading.
Investors have sent stocks sharply lower for more than a month because of concerns that Europe's sovereign debt crisis would slow economic growth worldwide and high unemployment would stall a U.S. recovery.
Asian and European markets rose after China said exports rose 48.5 percent in May, while imports jumped 48.3 percent. The jump in trade provides some relief that mounting debt problems in Europe might not halt a global economic recovery. The 27-nation European Union is China's largest trading partner.
Economic recovery in China and other developing nations has outpaced a rebound in more developed economies, so a pullback there would deal a blow to global growth.
The euro, which is used by 16 countries in Europe, rose to $1.2096 Thursday. The currency has become an indicator of investor confidence in Europe's economy. It has also heavily influenced global stock markets in recent weeks because of concerns that rising debt in countries like Greece, Spain and Portugal would upend a global economic recovery.
While investors worry about how Europe's debt problems could affect the rest of the world, there are also concerns about continued high unemployment in the U.S. High unemployment remains one of the biggest obstacles to a strong domestic rebound.
A Labor Department report Thursday said new claims for unemployment fell by a less-than-forecast 3,000 to a seasonally adjusted 456,000. While that figure fell short of economists' forecast for a drop to 448,000, investors were heartened by data showing total claims last week dropped by the largest amount in almost a year. Total unemployment benefit rolls fell by 255,000 to 4.5 million.
The drop in total claims provides some hope that laid-off workers are starting to find new jobs. It was welcome relief after the Labor Department said last week that private employers slowed their hiring in May to the lowest levels since January.
Job creation is considered vital to a sustained recovery in the U.S. and consistently positive jobs data could get investors to regain confidence in a domestic recovery after worries about Europe's troubles have overwhelmed global markets for more than a month.
The Dow rose 159.76, or 1.6 percent, at 10,059.01. The Standard & Poor's 500 index rose 17.50, or 1.7 percent, at 10,073.19, while the Nasdaq composite index rose 29.34, or 1.4 percent, to 2,188.19. |
