Wall Street began Monday on the upswing, following Sunday evening’s announcement of a deal between the White House and congressional leaders on a debt ceiling/budget deal.

The Dow Jones Industrial Average ended with a loss of 11 points, or 0.1%, at 12,132. Broadcasting stocks were also lower.
The RBR Radio Index was down 1.841, or 0.6%, at 331.252.
