DJI-NEW YORK, March 5 (Reuters) - World equities and oil jumped on Friday on signs of revived consumer spending and after fears a stormy February would worsen the U.S. jobs picture proved false, boosting sentiment about the pivotal labor market.
Sentiment also was buoyed after European leaders expressed confidence that new austerity measures planned by Greece would be enough to pull the country out of its debt crisis and make any bailout unnecessary.
The Dow Jones industrial average <.DJI> closed up 122.06 points, or 1.17 percent, at 10,566.20. The Standard & Poor's 500 Index <.SPX> climbed 15.73 points, or 1.40 percent, at 1,138.70. The Nasdaq Composite Index <.IXIC> gained 34.04 points, or 1.48 percent, at 2,326.35.
NYMEX-NEW YORK, March 5 (Reuters) - U.S. crude oil futures ended
at their highest level in nearly eight weeks on Friday, rallying with Wall Street, as government data showed that U.S. employers cut a smaller number of jobs than expected in February, bolstering economic recovery hopes.
Crude gained sharply along with a wide array of commodities as investors bet on higher raw materials demand and firm interest rates should the economy recover.

REGIONAL EQUITIES-BANGKOK, March 5 (Reuters) - Malaysian shares hit a six-week high on Friday as an unexpected interest rate hike boosted the outlook for local bank stocks, but the Thai market fell for a second day due to late selling in telecom shares.

Singapore <.FTSTI> gained 0.78 percent, Indonesia <.JKSE> was up 0.51 percent and Vietnam <.VNI> rose for a third day, adding 0.29 percent.
