[BRIEFING.COM] The stock market is closing in on solid gains to end what has been a tumultuous week for equities. 

The major averages currently hold gains wider than 1.0% as all eleven S&P 500 sectors trade in positive territory. 

The CBOE Volatility Index is down 12.2% to 23.20, suggesting that some of the defensive positioning that defined the earlier part of the week is easing as sentiment stabilizes into the close.
