The Dow Jones Industrial Average gained 0.64 percent to close at 16,530.94, while the S&P 500 Index gained 0.61 percent to close at 1,837.88. The trade deficit fell 12.9 percent to $34.3 billion, well short of economists’ forecasts of $40.0 billion. "With a continuation of strong data from the end of last year, people are starting to think maybe 2014 will be a breakout year for the economy," said Nick Sargen, chief investment officer at Fort Washington Investment Advisors.
