NEW YORK, Oct 5 (Reuters) – U.S. stocks were set to rise on
Friday after a report showed the U.S. economy added more jobs
than expected last month and the unemployment rate dropped to a
near four-year low in another indication that the labor market
continues to recover.
S&P; 500 futures rose 5.9 points and were above fair
value, a formula that evaluates pricing by taking into account
interest rates, dividends and time to expiration of the
contract. Dow Jones industrial average futures added 50
points and Nasdaq 100 futures rose 13 points.
