NEW YORK, NY / ACCESSWIRE / January 24, 2019 / U.S. equities regained its footing on Wednesday on the back of strong corporate earnings. Overall profits of the companies who have reported quarterly results so far have risen by approximately by 13.2 percent. The Dow Jones Industrial Average closed up by 0.7 percent to settle at 24,575.62, supported by strong quarterly earnings from Procter & Gamble, IBM and United Technologies, while the S&P 500 climbed 0.22 percent to close at 2,638.70.
