Stock Market Update

[BRIEFING.COM] The S&P 500 (+0.1%) continues to track within a relatively tight range just below its session highs heading into the final half hour of trading. 

Modest but broad-based buying activity can be attributed to today's rebound from a shaky start, as relative strength can be found across mega-cap and smaller-cap stocks alike. The Vanguard Mega Cap Growth ETF (+0.4%) outperforms the broader market, as do the Russell 2000 (+0.5%) and the S&P Mid Cap 400 (+0.3%). 

Treasuries traded in a tight range, staying calm once again despite more tariff letters being sent announcing higher tariff rates starting August 1. 

The 10-year note yield finished up one basis point at 4.43%.
