Stocks managed gains Thursday following a choppy session in which investors mulled mixed economic news ahead of Friday's big monthly jobs report.

Tech stocks lead the market, but weakness in financial and metals stocks mutes overall gains ahead of Friday's big jobs report. The service sector expands, but factory orders rise less than expected.

Crude oil was up $1.75, or 2.4%, to $74.61 a barrel. Natural gas was up 6% to $4.69 per million British thermal units.

Futures trading suggests a flat open for stocks on Friday. But the jobs report will change all that.
