Wall Street ends higher on market optimism


    NEW YORK (Reuters) - U.S. investors piled on a dizzying two-year advance in stocks on Thursday, using a brief slip on negative economic news as an opportunity to buy into market leaders.

    The technology sector showed strength, with Nvidia Corp up 9.8 percent to $25.68 a day after posting a bullish revenue forecast as sales of its processors accelerate.

    The Dow Jones industrial average was up 29.82 points, or 0.24 percent, at 12,317.99. The Standard & Poor's 500 Index was up 4.07 points, or 0.30 percent, at 1,340.39. The Nasdaq Composite Index was up 6.02 points, or 0.21 percent, at 2,831.58.
