Stocks slip even as unemployment claims drop

Stocks fall modestly even as new economic reports indicate economy continues slow growth

NEW YORK (AP) — Investors snapped a recent trend Thursday when they sold stocks after the latest signs on the economy continued to show modest growth.

The Dow Jones industrial average fell about 8 points in late morning trading. Broader indexes also fell modestly.

The Labor Department said first-time claims for unemployment benefits fell to a two-month low, but still remain at levels that indicate economic growth is sluggish. Claims dropped to 450,000 last week. Economists polled by Thomson Reuters forecast they would rise to 460,000.

In recent weeks, reports that topped forecasts were enough to rally the market as investors' worries about the economy falling back into recession dissipated. But the economy remains weak and stocks are approaching the high end of their recent trading range, which could be putting a lid on the market's September rally.

"We really don't have any economic trend in place other than stumbling economic growth," said Brett Gallagher, deputy chief investment officer at Artio Global Investors. "The reality is we're in for a lengthy slog of below-trend growth."
