Following yesterday's lower-than-expected jobless-claims report and the announcement that the European Central Bank will hold interest rates at 0.5%, the markets were primed for a big run-up. Today's jobs report, where analysts had expected to see 145,000 new jobs created in April, came in better than expected at 165,000 additions, spurred the market's charge.
As of 12:50 p.m. EDT the Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJINDICES: ^DJI ) is up 163 points, or 1.1%, while the S&P 500 and the Nasdaq have gained 1.2% and 1.3%, respectively. The Dow is now just a few points shy of the 15,000-point mark, while the S&P 500 has easily surpassed the milestone of 1,600. But even on a day when the markets are setting new records, we can still find a few individual companies moving lower.
