Obama picks Sec of Treas, stocks go up

Obama picked Timothy Geithner as the new Secretary of Treasury and the market went up almost 7%.  Why?

He's much different from Paulson and some of the other former holders of the post.  He does not come from a business background, but has quietly worked his way up to become president of the New York federal reserve bank.
