Wall Street up as help seen for Spanish banks


    NEW YORK (Reuters) - Stocks opened higher on Wednesday on signs of urgent moves in Europe to rescue Spain's troubled banks, but comments from the ECB president disappointed a market hoping for further stimulus to tackle the euro zone's debt crisis.

    The Dow Jones industrial average rose 87.42 points, or 0.72 percent, to 12,215.37. The S&P 500 Index gained 9.42 points, or 0.73 percent, to 1,294.92. The Nasdaq Composite added 24.98 points, or 0.90 percent, to 2,803.09.
