After The Bell: Stocks Surge On Wall Street
(CBS) -- Stocks moved to rally mode on Wednesday, reversing losses from earlier in the week, as the rise in yields and encouraging reports on the Greek debt crisis put investors in a buying mood. All three of the major indices traded over 1 percent higher on light volume, with the Dow jumping triple digits and closing above the key 18,000 mark.

"Today's rally in stocks were set off by a couple of things; the Greek situation appears to be turning the corner, a rise in crude oil prices is a positive here and comments from key officials that the Fed will not raise rates until 2016.

He also noted the current environment is a positive for stocks and it is very unlikely to see a major correction in the near term.
