US stocks rise as jobs data eases concerns

US stocks rose on Friday, boosted by better-than-expected job growth in March, which eased concerns of an economic slowdown that have periodically roiled financial markets over the past year.

Based on the latest available data, the Dow Jones Industrial Average rose 39.95 points, or 0.15 per cent to 26,424.58, reports Reuters.

The S&P 500 gained 13.32 points, or 0.46 per cent, to 2,892.71 and the Nasdaq Composite added 46.91 points, or 0.59 per cent, to 7,938.69.
