REUTERS - U.S. stocks opened little changed on Thursday as investors refrained from making big bets ahead of Friday's jobs data that could sharply move the needle on an interest rate hike next week.

The Dow Jones Industrial Average was down 6.48 points, or 0.03 percent, at 20,849.25, the S&P 500 was down 0.34 points, or 0.014 percent, at 2,362.64 and the Nasdaq composite was down 3.75 points, or 0.06 percent, at 5,833.81.
