DJIA trades flat after record high
Dow -8.94 at 44902.88, Nasdaq -227.34 at 21401.05, S&P -26.47 at 6422.68

[BRIEFING.COM] Though the DJIA (+0.1%) set a new all-time high (45,207.39) level today, the index now trades on its flatline as the major averages plot new session lows. 

Within the DJIA, Home Depot (HD 406.98, +12.28, +3.11%) has narrowed its early gain, while names such as UnitedHealth (UNH 301.46, -7.03, -2.28%) and Goldman Sachs (GS 721.70, -9.26, -1.27%) widen their losses.

Today's action comes on mixed-breadth figures. Advancers outpace decliners by a 3-to-2 margin on the NYSE, though decliners hold an 11-to-8 edge on the Nasdaq. 

Underperformance in tech and small-cap names contributes to the negative breadth figure on the NASDAQ, while the rest of the market performs modestly well.
