[BRIEFING.COM] The major averages continue to steadily chart session highs at midday.
The market-weighted S&P 500 (+0.7%) and S&P 500 Equal Weighted Index (+0.7%) are in alignment, reflecting a contrast to yesterday's session that saw the major averages retreat amid considerable mega-cap weakness despite strength in the broader market.
The Vanguard Mega Cap Growth ETF (+0.8%) holds a similar gain as several of the market's largest names regain their footing today. Thats not to say that mega-caps are the sole driver of today's strength, as cyclical sectors and small caps continue to put together solid performances, but rather a contributing factor to a market advancing on multiple fronts.
