DJI-NEW YORK, March 4 (Reuters) - U.S. stocks rose on Thursday as better-than-expected monthly sales from retailers and a drop in the number of Americans filing claims for jobless benefits pointed to stabilization in the economy.
The boost from February retail sales, which were expected to have been hurt by the severe weather across the United States, lifted retailers' shares as the S&P retail index <.RLX> added 1.3 percent.
The Dow Jones industrial average <.DJI> gained 47.38 points, or 0.46 percent, to 10,444.14. The Standard & Poor's 500 Index <.SPX> rose 4.18 points, or 0.37 percent, to 1,122.97. The Nasdaq Composite Index <.IXIC> added 11.63 points, or 0.51 percent, to close at 2,292.31.
NYMEX-NEW YORK, March 4 (Reuters) - U.S. crude oil futures ended lower on Thursday, easing from a seven-week high hit Wednesday, as the dollar rebounded and downbeat home sales data overshadowed positive economic reports of the day.
The unexpected fall in January sales of previously owned homes outweighed other data showing a rise in February retail sales, a big jump in factory orders in January and a drop in weekly first-time jobless benefit claims.

REGIONAL EQUITIES-BANGKOK, March 4 (Reuters) - Most Southeast Asian stock markets dipped on Thursday, nervously following U.S. stock index futures down a day ahead of U.S. job data for February.
