U.S. stocks rose

U.S. stocks rose, pushing the Standard & Poor’s 500 Index (SPX) toward its second straight weekly gain, after European leaders agreed to boost a rescue fund and American consumer confidence topped estimates. European leaders meeting in Brussels tightened anti-deficit rules and agreed to boost their crisis-fighting war chest by as much as 200 billion euros ($267 billion) by funneling money to the International Monetary Fund. They outlined a “fiscal compact” to prevent future debt run-ups and accelerated the start of a planned 500 billion-euro rescue fund. In addition, they watered down the demand that investors share the cost of future bailouts.
