Wall St flat; upbeat retailers offset Greece


    NEW YORK (Reuters) - The Dow Industrials and the S&P 500 briefly turned positive to trade near breakeven on Thursday as signs of stabilization in consumer spending offset persistent worries about Greece's debt crisis.

    Top U.S. retailers posted stronger-than-expected March same-store sales, benefiting from an early Easter holiday.

    The Dow Jones industrial average was down 4.39 points, or 0.04 percent, at 10,893.13. The Standard & Poor's 500 Index dipped 0.56 points, or 0.05 percent, at 1,181.89. The Nasdaq Composite Index fell 2.65 points, or 0.11 percent, at 2,428.51.
