DJI - NEW YORK, June 15 - U.S. stocks jumped on Tuesday as investors went on a buying binge. The S&P 500 turned positive for the year and rose above its 200-day moving average for the first time in a month, suggesting the recent downtrend may be nearing an end.

Investors were motivated by successful debt auctions in Spain, Belgium and Ireland, which lifted some of the gloom over Europe's debt crisis. The euro rallied against the dollar and pushed commodity prices higher.

The Dow Jones industrial average gained 213.88 points, or 2.10 percent, to 10,404.77. The Standard & Poor's 500 Index gained 25.60 points, or 2.35 percent, to
1,115.23. The Nasdaq Composite Index gained 61.92 points, or 2.76 percent, to 2,305.88.
