But the holiday-shortened week is headed towards a rocky finish, as Friday morning's report on the June employment data was discouraging about the pace of the U.S. economic recovery. The two leading small cap indices easily outperformed the large caps again on Thursday. The Russell 2000 Index closed the day up 1.52 percent, while the Standard & Poor's Small Cap 600 Index finished with a 1.39 percent increase. By comparison, the Dow Jones Industrial Average ended the day 0.74 percent higher, the S&P 500 was up 1.05 percent, and the Nasdaq Stock Market finished with a 1.36 percent gain. spacer spacer spacer spacer spacer spacer spacer spacer spacer spacer spacer spacer spacer spacer spacer spacer spacer spacer spacer spacer spacer spacer spacer spacer spacer spacer spacer spacer spacer spacer spacer spacer spacer spacer spacer spacer spacer spacer spacer spacer spacer spacer spacer spacer spacer spacer spacer spacer spacer spacer spacer spacer spacer spacer spacer
