Abbott Labs (ABT)

Abbott Laboratories (ABT) reported a 36% increase in third-quarter profit, exceeding Wall Street expectations. The company also also boosted its financial forecast for 2009. The company's Q3 profit was boosted by higher sales of nutritional products and heart devices and accelerating sales growth for its top drug, arthritis treatment Humira.
Abbott's good news was another factor in the Dow Jones heading to 10,000.
