U.S. stocks are stabilizing Thursday following one of their worst days of the year.The S&P 500 rose 0.4% in morning trading, a day after tumbling 2.9% when the Federal Reserve said it may deliver fewer cuts to interest rates next year than earlier thought. The Dow Jones Industrial Average was up 194 points, or 0.5%, as of 10:05 a.m. Eastern time, following Wednesday's drop of more than 1,100 points. The Nasdaq composite rose 0.5%.

Accenture rose 6.5% after the consulting company topped expectations for profit in the latest quarter. CEO Julie Sweet said it saw growth around the world, and the company raised its forecast for revenue this fiscal year.Amazon shares added 1.6%, even as workers at seven of its facilities went on strike Thursday, right in the middle of the online retail giant's busiest time of the year. Amazon says it doesn't expect an impact on its operations during what the workers' union calls the largest strike against the company in U.S. histor
