NEW YORK (Reuters) - U.S. stocks rose on Monday, supported by strong corporate earnings, even as disappointing results from IBM capped gains in the Dow industrials.

The Dow Jones industrial average rose 19.26 points, or 0.12 percent, to 16,399.67, the S&P 500 gained 17.26 points, or 0.91 percent, to 1,904.02 and the Nasdaq Composite added 57.64 points, or 1.35 percent, to 4,316.07.
