Visa's Stock Rally Keeps Dow In Positive Territory

The Dow Jones Industrial Average is up 124 points, or 0.8% on Thursday, outperforming the S&P 500 and Nasdaq in morning trade. But the gain on the blue-chip index is almost entirely due to its biggest component Visa Inc. A more than 9% jump in Visa's shares is adding about 119 points. Visa reported late Wednesday fiscal fourth-quarter earnings that beat expectations.
