U.S. Stocks Are Recovering a Day After the Dow’s Biggest Points Plunge Ever

(NEW YORK) — U.S. stocks rebounded from a violent selloff to post the biggest rally in 15 months as investors poured back into some of the most beaten-down sectors.

Technology, materials and consumer shares paced a 1.7 percent gain in the S&P 500 Index, while DowDuPont and [f500link]Home Depot[/f500link] led a 567 point surge in the Dow Jones Industrial Average, the biggest gain in two years. The ride wasn’t straight up, though.
