Wall St. up modestly in early going


    (Reuters) - Bank shares are helping Wall Street on Monday after the previous week's fall, following a rescue deal for Portugal's largest listed lender and supported also by earnings from companies such as Berkshire Hathaway .

    Berkshire shares are up 1 percent after its results posted Friday.

    Michael Kors Holdings is dropping 4.4 percent after the company's results, even as the company reported stronger than expected results.

    Portugal's government agreed to rescue Banco Espirito Santo with a $6.6 billion bailout, saving the country's largest listed bank from failure through temporary loans.
