May Job Numbers
 
"The private sector added 201,000 jobs in May, a robust improvement over the previous month and a sign the economic recovery is getting back on track, according to payroll firm Automatic Data Processing Inc.
And a Commerce Department report showing that April's trade deficit plummeted 19% in April provided further evidence that the effects of the West Coast port dispute during the winter were short-lived."
