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

Stocks extended their gains to a second day Thursday after an upbeat profit report from Best Buy Co. and new unemployment numbers added to a sense that the economy might be finding its footing.

The report from Best Buy boosted hopes that consumer spending could show more resilience than some analysts had expected.

Readings on the nation's economic output and weekly unemployment claims gave mixed signals about the economy. But the numbers still largely supported a growing notion in the market the past two weeks that the economy might be showing early signs of stabilizing.

In midmorning trading, the Dow Jones industrial average rose 59.02, or 0.8 percent, to 7,808.83. Broader stock indicators also rose. The Standard & Poor's 500 index rose 7.39, or 0.9 percent, to 821.27, and the Nasdaq composite index rose 26.85, or 1.8 percent, to 1,555.80.
