Markets were also led modestly higher as initial claims declined and retailers posted better-than-expected quarter results. The Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA) was up 0.4% to settle at 12,605.32. The Standard &#38; Poor 500 (S&#38;P 500) moved up 0.2% and closed at 1,343.60. The Nasdaq Composite Index finished the day at 2,823.31, after gaining 0.3%. The fear-gauge CBOE Volatility Index dropped down below 16. On the New York Stock Exchange, AMEX and Nasdaq, consolidated volumes remained low, at 6.2 billion shares, versus the average of 8.4 billion shares last year. On the NYSE, a couple of shares declined for every three shares that moved up. ]]></description>

(PETM) jumped 24% year over year to $0.46, exceeding the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $0.43 per share, driven by a blend of better-than-expected comparable store sales (comps) and gross margin. Net income was $55.6 million in the quarter, an increase of 20% from $46.3 million in first-quarter 2009. First-Quarter 2010 Performance Total revenues were $1.4 billion, an improvement of 5.1% from the year-ago period, on the heels of 2.8% comps growth in the quarter.
