NEW YORK (CNNMoney) -- U.S. stocks swung between gains and losses on
Thursday as investors weighed ongoing concerns about Greece's debt
versus stronger-than-expected reports on the housing market and
unemployment. The Dow Jones industrial average (INDU) was down 5 points, or less than 0.1%; the S&P 500 (SPX) was down 1.7 points, or 0.1%; and the Nasdaq Composite (COMP) lost 5 points, or 0.2%.

Thursday's trading comes after U.S. stocks finished sharply lower Wednesday, on gloomy manufacturing data and news that eurozone officials failed to agree on a rescue plan for Greece. It's
been part of a steady weakening in U.S. stocks since the start of May,
with the major indexes on track to decline for a seventh straight week.
The S&P is less than 10 points from going negative for 2011. The
index opened the year at 1,257.64. Economy:
Stocks briefly turned negative after the Federal Reserve Bank of
Philadelphia manufacturing survey unexpectedly declined to a reading
-7.7 in June while economists had forecasted a reading of +7.0 according
to Briefing.comBut with the exception of the Philly Fed survey,
investors had several better-than-expected economic data to mull over --
with initial unemployment claims from the Labor Department, as well as
May housing starts and building permits data from the Commerce
Department, both coming in stronger than expected.The government reported that jobless claims
slipped to 414,000 last week, down 16,000 from the prior week.
Economists had expected a more modest decline in weekly claims to

8.7% to a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 612,000 in May, from the
