How the major stock indexes fared Thursday (AP)

Stocks swung between losses and slight gains Thursday on reports that European leaders remain divided over efforts to fend off a larger financial crisis. The news out of Europe overshadowed an unexpected recovery in manufacturing in the Northeastern U.S.

Officials from the 17 countries that share the euro were scheduled to meet at a summit this Sunday to discuss ways to contain the damage. On Thursday, Germany and France called for a second emergency summit next week after it became clear that they would not be able to bridge their difference before the weekend meeting.

The Dow Jones industrial average rose 37.16 points, or 0.3 percent, to close at 11,541.78.
