[BRIEFING.COM] The S&P 500 (+0.83%) is in second place on Tuesday afternoon, up about 50 points.
Briefly, S&P 500 constituents Vistra Corp. (VST 186.34, +15.48, +9.06%), Prologis (PLD 116.87, +7.39, +6.75%), and NRG Energy (NRG 111.11, +6.60, +6.32%) pepper the top of the standings. VST and NRG move higher after sell side analyst comments, and PLD hits a seven-week high after earnings.
Meanwhile, embattled pharmacy company Walgreens Boots Alliance (WBA 10.88, -1.64, -13.10%) is once again the day's top laggard, continuing to fall after reports late Friday that the company was the subject of a DoJ lawsuit alleging it dispensed millions of unlawful prescriptions.
