Stocks ended higher Wednesday on hopes Europe is closer to getting its house in order with a plan to recapitalize its banks and an imminent agreement on a sweeping bailout plan. The developments in the euro zone also fueled hopes for more demand for commodities such as oil and copper, and boosted gold prices.
