Reviewedby:RohitTuli,CFA®

The U.S. stock market on Thursday rebounded and ended the day on positive note as a solid report on US retail sales lifted the investor sentiment.  The Dow Jones Industrial Average advanced 0.36%, the S&P 500 was up 0.45%, and the NASDAQ Composite edged 0.52% higher. The retail sales in the U.S. for the month of November 2014 increased 0.7% MoM and 5.1% over the year; further, jobless claims fell by 3,000 to 294,000 in the week that ended December 6, 2014 indicating the U.S. economy is on road to recovery. The European markets ended the day on a mixed note after lending data from the European Central Bank (ECB) buoyed sentiments as the uptake of the low-rate loan program by the ECB met market expectations. The Asian stock markets ended the day in red as investors raised concerns over the political situation in Greece, while declining oil prices also dented investor's confidence.
