WALL STREET stocks ended higher yesterday with help from a strong bond rally and surging technology and airline issues.

Financial stocks retraced many of the early losses that came after Bank One rattled investors with a warning of a profit shortfall in its credit card business.

The Dow Jones Industrial Index rose 43 points, or 0.38 per cent to a record 11,326. The Nasdaq composite rose 53.26 points, 1.94 per cent, to 2,805.63.
