[BRIEFING.COM] The S&P 500 (+0.4%), Nasdaq Composite (+0.5%), and DJIA (+0.4%) continue to trade higher as the broader market trends higher following a mixed opening.
The energy sector (-1.2%) remains a laggard as several of yesterday's outperformers face some selling interest. Halliburton (HAL 30.84, -1.09, -3.41%), Chevron (CVX 160.43, -3.42, -2.09%), and Valero Energy (VLO 178.19, -2.38, -1.32%) all face a modest pullback, but in each case today's losses are considerably narrower than yesterday's gains.
Additionally, the price of oil has decreased $0.18 (-0.3%) to $58.14 per barrel.
Stocks in the communication services sector (-0.6%) are also mostly lower, though the nine other S&P 500 sectors now trade higher.
