[BRIEFING.COM] The S&P 500 (-0.1%), Nasdaq Composite (-0.2%), and DJIA (-0.1%) sit lower across the board shortly after the open as the stock market continues to drift lower this week.
The early retreat is broad-based, with ten S&P 500 sectors trading lower. The information technology sector (-0.2%) traded higher momentarily at the open, supported by a gain in NVIDIA (NVDA 188.54, +1.00, +0.53%), but has since ceded its gain, pushing the major averages lower.
Like previous sessions this week, losses are modest, with the real estate sector (-0.5%) facing the widest loss.
Only the health care sector, which trades flat, avoids negative territory.
