Wall Street gains as Fed offsets debt woes
The session's climb pushed the Dow industrials back above the psychologically important 11,000 mark in a recovery from a swoon just before midday when Standard & Poor's cut Spain's credit rating. On Tuesday, the market sold off following a Standard & Poor's downgrade of Greece's debt rating to junk and a two-notch cut in Portugal's credit rating as well.
* The Dow Jones industrial average rose 53.28 points, or 0.48 percent, to end unofficially at 11,045.27. The Standard & Poor's 500 Index added 7.65 points, or 0.65 percent, to finish unofficially at 1,191.36. The Nasdaq Composite Index edged up just 0.26 of a point, or 0.01 percent, to close unofficially at 2,471.73.
