Stock Market Update

[BRIEFING.COM] The stock market is trying to finds its way to higher ground today, but weakness in NVIDIA (NVDA 126.03, -5.25, -4.0%) and other mega-cap stocks, along with tariff concerns, have been running some interference.

Accordingly, the market cap-weighted S&P 500 has been pinned close to its starting level as neither buyers nor sellers have shown much conviction.

Market breadth shows advancers and decliners roughly even at the NYSE, and decliners outpacing advancers by an 11-to-9 margin at the Nasdaq.

The Dow Jones Industrial Average (+0.8%) is outperforming on a gravitational pull to blue-chip names as the market works its way through the uncertainty related to tariffs and the potential implications for global growth.
