The US unemployment rate dropped to 8.6% — the lowest in two and a half years. That was due to people giving up on finding work as much as other people actually finding jobs, so the enthusiasm behind a morning rally on Friday faded in the afternoon. The Dow Jones Industrial Average was essentially flat, closing down 61 points at 12,019. The Nasdaq Composite was up slightly and the S&P 500 down slightly. Some good news: Broadcasting stocks were among the day’s winners.
The RBR Radio Index was up 1.632, or 0.5%, at 309.543.
The TVBR Television Index was up 1.699, or 0.8%, at 228.519.
