Dow Near 10,000 as Afghanistan News Boosts Stocks
U S stocks rallied with the Dow gaining 109.47 to 9,976.46 as optimism rose from reports of Taliban retreat in Afghanistan and lower energy costs.

Analysts caution the move reflects a rebound from the September 11 selloff rather than a solid sustainable upturn.
