TradingMarkets 7 Stocks You Need to Know for Thursday
After 6 straight days of gains, a listless drifting session was to be expected. Great news from the new homes sales and durable good numbers failed to generate stock buying excitement. Even word of General Electric seeking a suitor for its $2 billion dollar security unit failed to awaken the bulls. Despite the slow going, shares managed to eke out small gains on the day with the DJIA advancing 4.23, the tech heavy Nasdaq climbing 0.20 and the broad based S&P 500 just nudging higher by 0.12.
Here are 7 stocks you need to know for Thursday.
