WALL STREET GAINS AHEAD OF MEGACAP EARNINGS AND PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION
Wall Street rose on Monday ahead of earnings from a host of megacap companies and the final stretch of the Nov. 5 election, while sentiment also improved after developments in the Middle East over the weekend did not disrupt energy supplies.
Israel's response over the weekend to an Iranian missile attack earlier this month focused, so far, on missile factories and other sites near Tehran, rather than on refineries or nuclear targets, assuaging some worries about the situation in the region.
