[BRIEFING.COM] The S&P 500 (-0.1%) is up from session lows, while the Nasdaq Composite (-0.4%) trails, and the DJIA (+0.2%) maintains its modest gain.
Six S&P 500 sectors trade in positive territory, with the health care (+1.9%), communication services (+0.9%), and real estate (+0.9%) sectors capturing nice gains.
Four sectors trade below their baselines, as the technology (-0.8%) and financials (-0.8%) sectors are the top laggards.
Meanwhile, the utilities sector trades flat, though a healthy advance in its largest component, NextEra Energy (NEE 76.32, +4.08, +5.64%), masks losses across the majority of its other components.
