DJI-NEW YORK, Dec 21 (Reuters) - Optimism about the economic recovery on Monday encouraged investors to buy stocks and dump U.S. Treasuries, while gold prices fell as investors expected the dollar to remain firm in the beginning of the new year.
Speculation that the Federal Reserve may raise interest rates sooner than forecast drove the dollar to a six-week high against the yen and kept it near its strongest level against the euro in three months.
The Dow Jones industrial average <.DJI> ended up 85.25 points, or 0.83 percent, at 10,414.14, while the Standard & Poor's 500 Index <.SPX> gained 11.58 points, or 1.05 percent, to 1,114.05. The Nasdaq Composite Index <.IXIC> was up 25.97 points, or 1.17 percent, at 2,237.66.
NYMEX-NEW YORK, Dec 21 (Reuters) - U.S. crude futures ended lower on Monday, pressured by the stronger dollar as the front-month January crude contract moved toward expiration.
The market also eyed indications that OPEC will leave production targets unchanged at its meeting on Tuesday.
