    Home Builder Morale Boost Goes Beyond Winter Rally

    The National Association of Home Builders sentiment index climbed to 29 from 24 in April. Readings for current conditions, the six-month outlook and traffic also rose, nearing or besting winter highs.

    In intraday trading, Lennar (LEN), D.R. Horton (DHI) and KB Home (KBH) were each up more than 4%. PulteGroup (PHM) and Toll Brothers (TOL) advanced more than 2%.

    AND THIS GREAT NEWS

    German prelim first-quarter GDP unexpectedly strong

    (Reuters) - German gross domestic product grew a surprise 0.5 percent in the first quarter in seasonally adjusted terms - well ahead of a consensus forecast, as exports helped the economy bounce back from contraction of 0.2 percent in the fourth quarter.

    Preliminary data from the statistics office released on Tuesday also showed that growth compared to the same quarter a year earlier accelerated to 1.7 percent from 1.5 percent in the fourth quarter, giving hope to the ailing euro zone that Germany can remain a motor for growth.

    The office said exports above all drove growth and domestic consumption also gained pace
