Thursday's Top Performing Small Cap Stocks (SFN, ATX, CTIC, SCHL, ASGN)
The weekly jobless claims rose again and remained
above 400,000, which is not a good sign. But that didn't stop Dutch
staffing giant Randstad from offering $771 million for SFN Group
(NYSE: SFN), an American competitor.

The deal will double Randstad's U.S. presence. SFN's stock led all small caps with a 51.1 percent increase on the day. Expecting other consolidations in the staffing business, traders also bid up On Assignment (Nasdaq: ASGN) 10.9 percent, making it one of the better-performing small caps. 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
