Santa Claus rally loses more ground as market drifts lower
Dow -62.57 at 48304.28, Nasdaq -40.08 at 23379.03, S&P -8.95 at 6887.28

[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.
