Wall Street extends losses on Philly Fed data


    NEW YORK (Reuters) - Wall Street briefly extended losses on Thursday after a survey found factory activity in the U.S. Mid-Atlantic region contracted for the second straight month.

    The Dow Jones industrial average was down 29.97 points, or 0.28 percent, at 10,542.76. The Standard & Poor's 500 Index was down 4.18 points, or 0.37 percent, at 1,120.89. The Nasdaq Composite Index was down 5.19 points, or 0.23 percent, at 2,296.13.

    Wall Street had opened lower as jobless claims dropped to a two-month low but still remained high.
