Apr 5, 2024 7:03 AM

April 5 (Reuters) - Wall Street's main stock indexes

opened higher on Friday after stronger-than-expected March jobs

data pointed to resilience in the labor market even as it meant

the Federal Reserve would be in no rush to cut interest rates.

The Dow Jones Industrial Average rose 68.0 points, or

0.18%, at the open to 38664.98. The S&P 500 rose 11.7

points, or 0.23%, at the open to 5158.95​, while the Nasdaq

Composite rose 46.3 points, or 0.29%, to 16095.398 at

the opening bell.
