Higher close for US equities with the Dow leading the way

2 of 3 days higher.

Earlier in the day, when stocks opened lower, the headline was “Stocks down – 4 of 5 days lower”.
Now after a higher close, the headline reads “Stock up – 2 of 3 days higher”
Both are NOT fake news, but the 2nd one is the reality for the day.
