I made a PrintScreen and framed the story in red, as the underlying story and the headline is a bit different than the headline would suggest.

Stocks in U.S. Rise as Sears Profit Overshadows Government-Funding Concern
U.S. stocks rose for the first time in four days as unexpected profit at Sears Holdings Corp. overshadowed concern the government faces higher interest rates to finance the bailout of the financial industry, which sent Treasuries lower and weakened the dollar.
I have no comment ... other than a question: " What happens to Sears profits if government fails to fund itself in capital markets?". Well, and what is Sears Holdings Corp. profit compared to $160+ billion the U.S. govt intends to raise next week?
