• Wall Street ended mixed after a choppy session on Wednesday as investors focused on President Donald Trump's struggle to push through a healthcare bill and snapped up stocks after a steep drop the day before.
The Dow Jones Industrial Average .DJI declined 0.03 percent to end at 20,661.3 points, while the S&P 500 .SPX gained 0.19 percent to 2,348.45. The Nasdaq Composite .IXIC added 0.48 percent to 5,821.64.
• Asian stocks rose on Thursday, taking their cues from a Wall Street bounce, while the dollar crawled up from a four-month low but remains clouded by concerns about U.S. President Donald Trump's pro-growth policies. MSCI's broadest index of Asia-Pacific shares outside Japan .MIAPJ0000PUS advanced 0.1 percent.
• Japan's Nikkei .N225 gained 0.25 percent, thanks to a weaker yen.
• Later on Thursday in the U.S., the House is expected to vote on House Speaker Paul Ryan's healthcare plan, but the Obamacare replacement has seen resistance not just from Democrats, but from conservative GOP members too.
