The stock market finally got a deal from Greece, but it didn't produce much of a rally. Greece says it has agreed to cut spending to satisfy some of its lenders. That's a key condition for Greece to avoid a default next month that could spook world financial markets.

The Dow Jones industrial average rose 6.51 points, or 0.1 percent, to 12,890.46.
