Wall St. ends sharply higher after Fed comments


    NEW YORK (Reuters) - U.S. stocks rallied on Wednesday after the Federal Reserve suggested a less aggressive timeline for raising interest rates even as it opened the door for the first hike in almost a decade.

    The Dow Jones industrial average rose 222.14 points, or 1.24 percent, to 18,071.22, the S&P 500 gained 24.96 points, or 1.2 percent, to 2,099.24 and the Nasdaq Composite added 45.39 points, or 0.92 percent, to 4,982.83.
