The BizTimes Stock Index gained .48 points to close at 141.47 Thursday, but local stocks sank with the broader market in early morning trading today. Decliners far outnumbered advancers today after the U.S. Labor Department issued a disappointing national jobs report. The largest local decliners this morning were Gehl Co. (down 68 cents to $31.21) and MGIC Investment Corp. (down 59 cents to $59.98). The largest local advancers this morning were Bucyrus International Inc. (up $1.71 to $36.69) and Badger Meter Inc. (up 45 cents to $39.30). The BizTimes Stock Index was created by Small Business Times and is monitored by North Shore Bank. The index, which measures the stock values of publicly held companies based in southeastern Wisconsin, is updated daily and can be viewed at www.biztimes.com.
