Signs of a cooling labor market last month pushed major U.S. stock averages lower on Thursday, ahead of the highly anticipated August jobs report set for release on Friday.
Private sector job creation came in at 99,000 for August, according to ADP data, marking the slowest pace of growth since January 2021 and missing <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/24/09/40728795/private-employment-grows-by-99-000-in-august-sharply-misses-forecasts-of-140-000-">the forecast of 140,000.</a>
A stronger-than-expected services sector activity sentiment for August offered some relief to broader recession concerns, but an employment subindex bolstered hints of the ongoing cooling <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/24/09/40732534/services-sector-activity-expands-more-than-expected-in-august-but-employment-growth">in the labor market.</a>
The S&amp;P 500 dropped below the 4,500 support level for the first time since mid-August, extending weekly losses to 2.9%, and is on track for its worst week since mid-April.
Tech stocks managed to pare losses, with semiconductor shares holding steady. Blue-chip stocks underperformed, as the Dow Jones slid 0.8%, while small-cap stocks fell 0.6%.
A decision from OPEC+ to delay an October oil production increase by two months supported crude prices and further pressured already fragile investor sentiment. West Texas Intermediate (WTI) crude stopped its decline after suffering its worst two-day slump since October 2023.
Treasury yields dipped slightly, and the U.S. dollar softened. Meanwhile, gold edged higher by 0.6%.
Natural gas was Thursday's standout performer, with Henry Hub prices surging over 5%. The U.S. Energy Information Administration reported a natural gas storage injection of 13 billion cubic feet (Bcf) for the week ending Aug. 30, significantly below historical averages and expectations.
Sentiment in crypto assets worsened, with Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) tumbling 3% to $56,170.

Adjusted gross margin expanded to&nbsp;35.4%&nbsp;from&nbsp;34.4%&nbsp;a year ago, led by productivity improvements and net price realization.

FY24&nbsp;Outlook: Toro now expects company net sales growth of about&nbsp;1% (prior view: low single-digit growth) and adjusted EPS of&nbsp;$4.15 &#8211; $4.20 (<a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com//node/39211987" rel="noreferrer noopener">prior: $4.25 &#8211; $4.35</a>) vs. consensus of&nbsp;$4.30.
Olson added, &#8220;We are already realizing benefits from our multi-year productivity initiative named AMP, and we expect these benefits to accelerate during the next two years.

&#8220;We are extremely well positioned in attractive end markets, and look ahead with optimism to fiscal 2025 and beyond,&#8221; added Olson.

<h3>Why Pay Attention to Insider Transactions</h3>
While insider transactions should not be the sole basis for making investment decisions, they can play a significant role in an investor's decision-making process.
When discussing legal matters, the term "insider" refers to any officer, director, or beneficial owner holding more than ten percent of a company's equity securities, as stipulated in Section 12 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. This includes executives in the c-suite and significant hedge funds. Such insiders are required to report their transactions through a Form 4 filing, which must be completed within two business days of the transaction.
A new purchase by a company insider is a indication that they anticipate the stock will rise.
On the other hand, insider sells may not necessarily indicate a bearish view and can be motivated by various factors.
<h3>Unlocking the Meaning of Transaction Codes</h3>
Navigating through the landscape of transactions, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/investing-tools">investors</a> often prioritize those unfolding in the open market, precisely detailed in Table I of the Form 4 filing. A P in Box 3 denotes a purchase, while S signifies a sale. Transaction code C signals the conversion of an option, and transaction code A denotes a grant, award, or other acquisition of securities from the company.

Why G-III Apparel Shares Are Trading Lower By 13%? Here Are Other Stocks Moving In Thursday's Mid-Day Session

The Toro Company (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TTC#NYSE">TTC</a>) shares are trading higher after the company reported <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/24/06/b39204551/the-toro-company-reports-results-for-the-second-quarter-of-fiscal-2024" rel="noreferrer noopener">second-quarter FY24 results</a>.
Sales increased 1% Y/Y to $1.35 billion, beating the consensus of $1.343 billion.
Sales by segments: Professional $1.006 billion (-5.9% Y/Y), and Residential $335.6 million (+26.3 Y/Y).
Adjusted gross margin contracted to 33.6% from 35.8% a year ago due to a change in product mix and higher material and manufacturing costs.
Adjusted operating margin declined to 14.2% from 16.3% the prior year. Adjusted EPS of $1.40 (-11% Y/Y) surpassed&nbsp;<a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/calendars/earnings" rel="noreferrer noopener">the consensus of $1.29</a>.
As of May 3, cash and equivalents stood at $188.8 million.
Richard M. Olson, chairman and chief executive officer, said, &#8220;We realized exceptional growth in our residential segment due to our strong mass channel, successful new product introductions, and better weather conditions compared to last year.&#8221;
&#8220;Importantly, we made significant progress in reducing dealer field inventories of lawn care equipment in both the residential and professional segment, a result of lower shipments to that channel, coupled with spring retail momentum.&#8221;
FY24 Outlook: Toro continues to expect low-single-digit total company net sales growth and adjusted EPS of $4.25-$4.35&nbsp;<a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/calendars/guidance" rel="noreferrer noopener">(vs. consensus: $4.26)</a>.
Olson added, &#8220;We expect continued growth in shipments to our residential segment mass channel, and anticipate this growth will help offset our expectations for lower preseason shipments of snow and ice management products given the lack of snow this past winter.&#8221;
Investors can gain exposure to the stock via MarketDesk Focused U.S. Dividend ETF (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FDIV#NASDAQ">FDIV</a>) and VanEck Agribusiness ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MOO#NYSE">MOO</a>).
Price Action: TTC shares are up 12.77% at $89.81 at the last check Thursday.
