Why are Republican Senate and House leaders assuring wall street the debt ceiling will be raised at some point?

Yes it looks like the debt ceiling will be raised though I wish it wouldn't be. It is time to put an end to spending and seriously cut out waste in our government. As a republican, I'm watching our folks very carefully, if they fail to secure meaningful cuts in spending and don't take positive actions to reduce our debt, I'll be voting for a conservative that will.
