A broad market rally helped to push Netflix (NFLX) to a new record close Monday. The streaming giant ended the day at $707, breaking its June record by around $26 a share. Stocks enjoyed their best three-day rally since March after Greece and its European creditors came to an agreement on further bailout funds. Microsoft (MSFT) was one of the best performers on the Dow after setting a July 29 launch date for its new Windows 10 operating system. Tech stocks fared well in Monday's rally. Other top Dow performers included Intel (INTC) which added 2% and Apple (AAPL) which gained 1.9%. Marathon Petroleum (MPC) topped the S&P 500 after MLXP, a partnership it sponsors, agreed to acquire MarkWest Energy Partners (MWE) for just under $16 billion.
