Dow jump boosted by oil

(02:04) Report

Jul. 3 - Blue chips ended a holiday-shortened trading week with a strong finish after record oil prices lifted energy shares and a jobs report added little to economic jitters.

  • The Dow gained 73 points to 11,288. The S&P 500 rose a point to 1,262. The Nasdaq slipped 6 points to 2,245.
  • Crude oil prices rose nearly $2 to $145.29 a barrel.
