Good MorningEquity markets edged higher on Thursday to set new all-time highs for the S&P 500 index. The broad market index traded within a very tight range following a round of better than expected economic data. The Factory Orders data came in a tenth hotter than expected at 0.4% following last month’s 1.5% increase. The gains suggest slowing activity but continued economic expansion and at a rate greater than forecast.
On the employment front, the weekly jobless claims data came in better than expected and set the lowest level since the pandemic began. The claims data suggests Friday’s non-farm payrolls figure will be good as well. The analysts are expecting more than 700,000 new jobs were created in August, nearly double the amount indicated by the ADP report earlier in the week.
