Wall Street opens flat, retailers weigh


    NEW YORK (Reuters) - Stocks opened flat on Thursday as data showed an unexpected drop in weekly jobless claims, though weakness in retail sales data weighed on indexes.

    Major retailer stocks, including Gap Inc , fell in early trading. Gap lost 2 percent to $28.54 while Target Corp was off 2 percent at $56.78.

    The Dow Jones industrial average was down 2.57 points, or 0.02 percent, at 13,266.00. The Standard & Poor's 500 Index dipped 0.09 points, or 0.01 percent, at 1,402.22. The Nasdaq Composite Index was off 0.37 points, or 0.01 percent, at 3,059.48.
