Wall Street ends up on economy gains


    NEW YORK (Reuters) - Stocks ended higher on Thursday, as signs of strength in the economy and higher-than-expected profit at FedEx outweighed more warnings about Europe.

    Based on the latest available data, the Dow Jones industrial average was up 47.45 points, or 0.40 percent, at 11,870.93. The Standard & Poor's 500 Index was up 4.08 points, or 0.34 percent, at 1,215.90. The Nasdaq Composite Index was up 1.60 points, or 0.06 percent, at 2,540.91.
