NEW YORK (CNNMoney.com) -- The Dow industrials surged to an all-time high Thursday, ending at a new record for the fourth time in the last five sessions as stocks found some momentum at the end of a choppy day on Wall Street.
The Dow Jones industrial average (up 73.23 to 13,136.14, Charts) added nearly 0.6 percent and ended at a new record. The blue-chip average did not take out the all-time intraday record of 13,162.06 it hit Monday.
The tech-heavy Nasdaq composite (up 6.44 to 2,531.53, Charts) and the broader S&P 500 (up 3.93 to 1,486.30, Charts) index both added nearly 0.3 percent.
Treasury prices fell, lowering the corresponding yields. The dollar rose against the euro, after hitting an all-time low last week. The greenback also advanced versus the yen.
