Wall Street climbs, S&P 500 posts best week since July

U.S. stocks rose on Friday and the S&P 500 posted its biggest weekly gain since July as investors weighed whether the Federal Reserve will raise interest rates next week. Energy shares dropped, however, after Goldman Sachs cut its oil price forecast through next year. Eight of the 10 S&P 500 sectors closed higher, led by gains in utilities , which tend to rise as bond yields fall.
