U.S. stock index futures end sharply higher

CHICAGO, April 5 (Reuters) - U.S. stock index futures ended sharply higher in a delayed reaction to Friday's U.S. March employment data which confirmed that the U.S. economy was growing at a strong pace, with few inflationary pressures.


''Everyone went home for the holidays a little too short,'' one trader said.

Traders did not have a chance to cover short positions immediately after the U.S. labor data were released as trading in U.S. stocks was shut for the Good Friday holiday.

Short-covering was strong on Monday, lifting June Standard & Poor's 500 futures 31.20 points to 1,333.90 before the close.

Hey Bomboocha,

Enjoying the AOL ride?

How are you adjusting to daylight savings? I was kidding my brother that he now has to get up at 3:30 AM to catch the opening bell. Gotta lobby the politicians to have Hawaii move with the mainland.

Happy investing.
