[BRIEFING.COM] The Dow Jones Industrial Average trades around its prior close after moving off its session high.
The three top weighted components in the price-weighted average trade higher, providing a measure of support to the Dow. Goldman Sachs (GS 547.71, +1.42, +0.3%), UnitedHealth (UNH 524.06, +0.31, +0.1%), and Microsoft (MSFT 380.14, +4.75, +1.3%) are the most influential components.
A big decline in shares of Johnson & Johnson (JNJ 15.56, -9.28, -5.6%) has contributed downside pressure to the Dow. JNJ is responding to news that a judge blocked its talcum powder settlement.
