Wall Street marches higher with Apple, lower rate-hike odds

Wall Street rallied on Thursday, buoyed by Apple's best four-day run since 2014, higher oil prices and lackluster data that further dimmed the odds of an interest rate hike next week. Apple rose as much as 3.3 percent, giving the three major indexes their biggest boost after saying that the first stock of its iPhone 7 Plus was sold out globally. Data showed retail sales and industrial activity fell more than expected in August.
