Bloomberg U.S. Stocks Advance as M&A, Buybacks, Dividends Boost Optimism

U.S. stocks advanced, sending the Dow Jones Industrial Average to the highest level since June 2008, as acquisitions, share-buyback plans and dividend prospects bolstered investors’ optimism.

Intel Corp. gained 2 percent, spurring a rally in technology shares, after the world’s largest chipmaker added $10 billion to its buyback plan.

Earnings at U.S. companies have been strong. That’s positive for the equity market.”

The S&P 500 rebounded today following its first weekly drop since November. The benchmark gauge for American equities rose as much as 91 percent from a 12-year low in March 2009 amid government stimulus measures and higher-than-estimated corporate profits. The benchmark gauge for U.S. equities is currently trading for 15.7 times its companies’ reported earnings, compared with a 10-year average of 18.23.   more ...
