DJI-NEW YORK, April 8 (Reuters) - U.S. stocks gained on Thursday after surprisingly strong March retail sales increased optimism that the economic recovery is on track.
Investors snapped up retailers' shares after top U.S. chains reported a record year-over-year increase in same-store sales for March. The sales reflected a boost in consumer demand that some investors had doubted would materialize, with job growth still anemic.
The Dow Jones industrial average <.DJI> gained 29.55 points, or 0.27 percent, to 10,927.07. The Standard & Poor's 500 Index <.SPX> rose 3.99 points, or 0.34 percent, to 1,186.44. The Nasdaq Composite Index <.IXIC> added 5.65 points, or 0.23 percent, to 2,436.81.
NYMEX-NEW YORK, April 8 (Reuters) - U.S. crude oil futures settled lower onThursday, dropping a second straight session as a rising inventories, higher U.S. jobless claims and the dollar's strength helped pressure oil.
Those factors outweighed strong retail sales data that fueled a bounce by U.S. stocks on Wall Street and helped lift crude oil futures off an earlier low.

REGIONAL EQUITIES-BANGKOK, April 8 (Reuters) - Thai stocks <.SETI> fell 3.5 percent on Thursday, far more than other Southeast Asian markets after a state of emergency was declared in Bangkok, while Indonesia fell back after reports of temporary capital controls.
Appetite for equities in the region was dented by the view of a top Federal Reserve official who said U.S. interest rates should not stay low for much longer, suggesting to some that recent strong inflows into Asia might wane.
Singapore <.FTSTI> and Malaysia <.KLSE> lost almost 1 percent, ending recent runs to 21-month and 25-month highs respectively. The Philippines <.PSI> eased 0.4 percent, hovering around 26-month highs. Vietnam <.VNI> was flat.
