Major U.S. stock-indexes rose on Wednesday, helped by stronger-than-expected durable goods data, raising hopes that Wall Street will snap its six-day losing streak. Durable goods orders rose 2% in July, compared with analysts' average forecast of a 4% fall. Orders for core capital goods, a proxy for business investment, rose 2.2% - their biggest gain in 13 months. The data suggested U.S. economy was in good shape. Wednesday's gains followed a dramatic day of trading on Tuesday, when the three main indexes reversed course suddenly to close sharply lower amid lingering worries about slowing growth in China.
