Closing Bell: Market Bounces Back with a Vengeance (AIB, MCO, NBG, GS, PLD)

Today wasn't about an Obama Supreme Court nominee, nor was it about reform or other legislation in the center of the known world (America). Today was simply about an E.U. and IMF coordinated E.U. bailout package measuring close to $1 trillion.

Cautious housing survey data about homeowners being buried further in their houses did little to harm the markets. In fact, this was one of the days where you ended up feeling bad if each of your stock picks wasn't up 4% or more.

Here were the unofficial closing bell levels from today's massive day:

Dow 10,785.74 +405.31 (3.90%)
S&P 500 1,159.68 +48.80 (4.39%)
Nasdaq 2,374.67 +109.03 (4.81%)
