Wall Street adds further gains on trade optimism and DJIA marks a fresh high

• The Dow Jones Industrial Average added 40 points, or more than 0.1%, to finish around 26,425.
• The Nasdaq Composite added 0.6% to end around 7,939.
• The S&P 500 climbed around 0.5% to close near 2,893. 

On nonfarm payrolls day, the Bureau of Labor Statistics said that the U.S. economy added 196,000 jobs in March which beat analysts' expectations. 

• "A good-enough jobs report will keep the Fed in watch-and-wait mode, as global growth concerns dominate Fed attention. Payroll growth rebounded while wage growth was soft and slack remained scarce. We expect the Fed to wait for data to cumulate before any possible change in tone," analysts at TD Securities explained

Also, optimism on the trade front, follwoing the Xinhua News Agency's news that reported that China President Xi Jinping had written to President Donald Trump calling for the U.S. to finish negotiations to end their trade dispute soon helped to spurr the bulls along.
