[BRIEFING.COM] The S&P 500 (flat) has reclaimed its flatline as tech losses continue to narrow against a backdrop of broader strength. Meanwhile, the DJIA (+0.8%) continues to chart session highs, moving it back into positive week-to-date territory.
Within the price-weighted average, health care and consumer staples names such as UnitedHealth (UNH 409.18, +13.56, +3.43%) and Walmart (WMT 119.02, +2.86, +2.46%) pad yesterday's advance with similar gains today.
Additionally, Home Depot (HD 306.20, +10.69, +3.62%) is an outperformer amid lower Treasury yields and strength across homebuilders today.
NIKE (NKE 37.08, +1.78, +5.03%) is the best-performing stock in the index despite a dearth of corporate news as investors do some bargain-hunting after the company's most recent earnings report sent it to 52-week lows.
