[BRIEFING.COM] With half an hour left of today's action, the major averages currently sit a touch off of their all-time closing highs. 

While the information technology sector (+1.2%) has paced today's gains, it also holds some of the market's biggest laggards. 

Oracle (ORCL 276.83, -14.48, -4.97%) is the worst-performing stock in the S&P 500, trading lower after Barron's expressed a mixed view on the stock. 

AppLovin (APP 571.91, -27.40, -4.57%) fares just slightly better, with shares slipping after The New York Post reported that the company will be the subject of a data privacy investigation.
