U.S. and EU upbeat debt news fuels rally

NEW YORK (Reuters) – Stocks climbed on Thursday as signs of progress on the U.S. debt talks and concrete action from Europe on its own debt crisis heartened investors.

But the biggest news was on a possible U.S. debt deal to save the United States from an unprecedented default.
“We started drifting until we got a report that the president and the speaker of the house were close to an accord, and the market shot up like a rocket at that point,” said Bucky Hellwig, senior vice president at BB&T Wealth Management in Birmingham, Alabama. For more visit: Yahoo finance
