Daily Small Cap Market News and Stock Highlights from SmallCapVoice.com

News that the manufacturing industry has grown for the first time in 18 months is giving the stock market a boost.

The slight gains follow declines in European shares and a modest rebound in Asian markets.

The Institute for Supply Management says its index of manufacturing activity rose to 52.9 in August, up from 48.9 in July and well above the reading of 50.5 analysts had been expecting.

A reading above 50 signifies growth in the industry -- something that hasn't happened since January 2008.

Meanwhile, an index of pending home sales rose in July for the sixth straight month.

Following the reports, the Dow Jones industrials are up 53 at 9,549. The Standard & Poor's 500 index is up 6 at 1,027, while the Nasdaq composite index is up 22 at 2,031.
