The Closing Bell: Wall Street Rally Fueled by Gains In Energy Stocks: Utilities Only Sector Down
FYI: U.S. stocks marched higher Wednesday, driven by gains in energy and financial shares.
Major indexes have advanced since last Thursday, with the Dow industrials and S&P 500 rising more than 2% in that period. The move higher has come as oil prices approach $50 a barrel and investors appear more comfortable with the prospect of higher interest rates as early as this summer.
