[BRIEFING.COM] The S&P 500 (+1.79%) is in second place on Thursday afternoon, holding gains of about 100 points.
Elsewhere, S&P 500 constituents Tesla (TSLA 243.55, +16.35, +7.20%), Advanced Micro (AMD 158.29, +10.00, +6.74%), and PayPal (PYPL 77.62, +4.50, +6.15%) pepper the top of the standings. AMD is a beneficiary of the idiom that rising tides lifts all boats, where in this case the broader strength in the chip sector also boosts AMD, with PYPL getting a shot in the arm from favorable analyst comments.
Meanwhile, Iron Mountain (IRM 113.46, -2.99, -2.57%) is today's top laggard.
