Nasdaq Stocks

Stocks have been trading mixed Thursday morning while Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL) briefly touched $600 today. Economic reports showing improvements in the labor market and manufacturing did little to send the market up as inflation is on the back of every one’s mind.

Weekly jobless claims hit a four year low last week at 351,000 according to the Labor Department. Most economists were expecting weekly jobless claims to fall to 356,000. The unemployment rate remained steady at 8.3%.

Producer prices rose less than expected in February as they increased by 0.4%. Energy costs contributed to this increase.

A quick look at the major indexes show the Dow up 12 points, the Nasdaq up 8 points and the S&P 500 up 3 points.
