[BRIEFING.COM] The stock market largely remains in a stalemate entering the final half hour of trading. 

A lack of major developments has kept the major averages drifting sideways since falling from session highs this morning. 

The utilities (+1.7%), consumer discretionary (+0.9%), and real estate (+0.2%) sectors have spent the majority of the session in the green. 

Meanwhile, the financials (flat) and materials (+0.1%) sectors have oscillated around their opening levels, while the six other sectors display modest losses.
